Should one light at a restaurant or outside the dining room? How should one conduct oneself if one arrives in a city close to the beginning of shabbos, or even after shabbos has already begun? When can one ask a gentile to drive you home? Does one need to stand in one location for the entire shabbos? What is the reason for not traveling long distances on Friday?
