Thank you! Also everyone is pretending like they aren’t paying $500 a month to park those cars they are bringing into the city.

It used to be a running joke that no one in NY drove because transit was good. Now everyone complains that the city isn't driveable. We NEED less cars and better transit. We just distrust the systems.

Two totally diff things, for most of us who live on outerboros and travel thru or too the city for work it’s a working man’s tax. Closing parts of times sq to make more walkable streets is way diff

Part of the issue is that except for the Brooklyn bridge, in order to cross onto FDR drive or west side highway, you must enter local streets, so you will get charged.

I agree that the change could be good. But it primarily benefits Uber, the wealthy, and i have serious doubts the MTA will see this money.
