Can you tell me more? In most places, that does seem obvious. In NYC, it seems less obvious to me.
The friends of mine who complaining about congestion pricing rules are the upper/upper middle class folks who have not been on public transportation since Bloomberg’s first term. My friend who are lower income use public transportation everywhere.
- pempem 2y agoIn NYC there's a lot of public transportation however we're seeing its proposal in LA and other poor public transportation cities. In spaces where you need a car to get around it can be very hard. A bus here in southern california can take an hour when the drive takes 15 minutes or less.
- LeafItAlone 2y agoSure. NYC is certainly unique (in the USA) in the regard.
