I find the framing of the (potential) negatives interesting. Not worse, too soon to say, holding up
Public opinion should have been red. This is needlessly partisan.
I’m glad that they included numbers and not just subjective interpretations…wait
All positives: public opinion not great.
Thanks, fucking propagandists…
This table is clearly cherry picked and biased. If you add a row “cost of me bringing my car”, then it’s up, up, UP in big red letters!! No thanks!

In my experience, this community is really sensitive to anything even remotely pro-car, so jokes need to be marked more clearly than multiple exclamation marks! Haha
Tbf, it sounded like a matter-of-fact opinion to my filthy casual ears until I saw the edit.
So your cost should overwrite safer streets, less congestion for people who do drive, and less noise and air pollution for people who don’t even drive? What a selfish person.
I know you’re joking but is it even up? I haven’t driven in NYC, but my experience in other large cities is that unless you’re parking at a friend’s place, having a car in town can be expensive and annoying when you want to park it close to your destination. And that’s assuming no one fucks with it while you’re away from it.
Though it does depend on how much the tolls are. Hell, parking might even be cheaper now that demand is down, unless they’ve started repurposing parking space already.
What is “brining” for cars? Is this a joke?
I think it’s supposed to say “bringing”.
Yeah. Bringing your car is more expensive. That’s the whole point of the toll.
Oh god YES it was a joke 🤦I forgot the /s
This is the finest example of poe’s law I’ve seen all week
should have been done decades ago. would have been quite a bit harder to implement before the tech that enables it to be done efficiently, though.
Obvious years before it was implemented, that’s part of the problem.
