I claimed the fee means that now only the rich are driving in NYC. You said the data said that’s not true. Yes, the poor outnumber the rich. I didn’t question that. The poor can no longer afford to drive into NYC making it a new luxury for the rich. They no longer have to deal with the poors on the road with them. The rich aren’t going to take a bus to save $9.
Is there any data that shows people making $500k a year are deterred by a $9 fee?
Going to work 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year is $2,250. The average garage price is $15 a day.
The lower traffic numbers are the data. That’s what the screen shot shows. None of the bridges or tunnels are backed up.
