Question
If a person falls asleep on a bus during Sukkot, should he be woken up so that he does not sleep outside the sukkah?
Answer
If it is an intercity bus, it is considered like travelers who are exempt from the sukkah, and he is permitted to sleep there. If it is a city bus, if he fell asleep negligently, he should be woken up, but if he fell asleep not negligently, he should not be woken up.
