Eric - when you get a car, *never* drive through a religious neighbourhood during Shabbat.
We accidentally did once, in Jerusalem, and got stoned (& not in a pleasant way!) - even with an Oz flag in the rear window to attempt to atone for any unintended transgressions.
They collect stones the day before (to avoid performing 'work' on Shabbat) & apparently it's okay to throw them at people violating the Sabbath because this is punishment, doing G*d's work...!

(& you can afford a car?!! We bought a 20-year old VW for Au$3000, and the gearbox blew after 100 km!)
