# Someone who goes on a trip whether it’s by foot, car, train, or airplane should say Tefillat HaDerech. <Ref>S”A 110:7 writes that one only makes the Bracha for a distance of a parsa (which Mishna Brurah 110:31 explains is 8000 [[Amot]]). Mishna Brurah 110:30 writes that one should make the Bracha for riding a train. Piskei Teshuvot 110:2 writes that one makes the Bracha for travel by car, train, boat, or airplane. Ishei Yisrael 50:2 writes that whether one is walking or driving one makes the Bracha. Ishei Yisrael 50:1 quotes Rav Shlomo Zalman saying that one who’s traveling by car can add the phrase “VeTatsileynu MeTeunot Derachim” (may we be saved from a car accident). </ref>
