My neighbor gave me a lift home from the bus stop last night, and posed
this dilemma.
Every week she drives this 86 yr old lady to the supermarket to help
with her grocery shopping. Friend is sure that the older woman will not
change her very routine menu.
So:
Does he drive the woman, risking lifnei iveir or mesayei'ah?
Or does she not drive, risking the woman having a food shortage?
Should she bow out but find a non-Jewish driver -- is that any less
lifnei iveir otherwise?
Tir'u baTov!
