>>2027033urbanists like op need their uber/lyfts to ferry them between brooklyn and manhattan especially when the g train runs once every hour on weekend nights
watch special exemptions for ups/amazon/fedex/doordash in the next year too
this whole congestion charge is a giant fuck you to everyone who doesnt live within 1/2 a mile of a subway stop
>>2027045my environmental consulting job had me driving my moms minivan everyday from queens to manhattan or sometimes even jersey/rockland with a trunk full of air sampling equipment to measure air quality at construction sites
i was making $18-25/hr until i got a job for the city and quit, they usually paid for my parking but still doesnt mean i want to give free money to the mta who can't even make people who use the system pay for it.
i went to mexico city last week and even the mexicans weren't beating fares unless they wanted to get tackled by a transit cop (usually hanging out at the turnstiles)
