Boy , a big F to MTA and this city that lets em come up with this *. This congestion pricing Monster was created by greed and bad policy. Paying too many people to think up this * . While the 4 other boros could keep being worker bee slaves to the gobermint.
Let Uber/lift ,citi bike, bus and bike lanes, and the rest of the nonsense get approved and applauded. These are the vicious smoke and mirrors created years ago to * Joe Public and his fam!!!
And the MT *A gets to call the shots????? Hows about stop paying people to think, place an extra tax on Uber CitiBike Amazon blue vans ? * them and the hole they came out of!!!
Convinience (to make people lazy and give in) is the kool aid being offered. Lets get back to the good old days where you must go out and buy stuff, walking.
Cant really blame people concealing their plates, or going unlicensed electric.
NYC is the testing ground for policies in this country to see how much the government can make the US a police state.
Look 4 years ago, at the strict covid rules and lockdowns, and how compliant the people of NYC were without any defiance.
Now we have airport level scanners and national guard in the subways.
People on college campuses are rioting about foreign affairs and getting swat teams sent in on them. But not a peep about the police state being built in their own city?
So is still free if I go uptown after getting off the queensborough?
Then is it also free if I go out of Manhattan from uptown I just take the fdr to Brooklyn bridge?
Take the upper Queensboro bridge and go uptown from there. You will avoid the toll. If you take the lower bridge, or go in any other direction from the upper bridge, you’ll be tolled.
You shouldn’t have to pay for brooklyn bridge if you enter from FDR.
Part of the thing that I don't hear people discussing is what this will mean beyond Manhattan. Government getting a taste of a new revenue stream is only going to think about how to further grow that source. "Congestion pricing" will be coming to an outer borough near you in the coming years. Mark my words.
