Everything comes from Hashem but we must do our hishtadlus, we cannot expect things to go outside of the tevah. After I saw this post last night, I was beside myself. What a tragic loss of life. Such a special bochur. What a loss for klal yisroel. The first thing to learn from this is dont drive when you’re tired. The second thing is think before you give your child the car keys. We always think that “nothing will happen.” It was “beshert”? I’m not so sure – I believe in hishtadlus also.

As someone not connected, and not on the madreygeh to properly feel their pain, i want to make a general point.
Amazing how many tragedies happen during the three weeks/nine days.
Has anyone made a statisical study?
If it is a statistical anomaly, what an open yad hashem.
