Question

When a sage passes in front of a seated person, the person is obligated to stand up for him. Is one required to stand up if a vehicle passes by with a sage inside?

Answer

Refer to the Gemara in Kiddushin, page 33b: in practice, since he is in a different domain, one is not required to stand.
