In the brochures only. That rental car in New York probably saved your life. You'd be a fool to take the city subway system as a tourist. Most people take shuttle busses, car services, or use ride share programs.
There's a perverse incentive for politicians to continue making cities unlivable for the peons and then charge them to come in and work or visit there.
If congestion is a problem in a city, fix the city so people can live there.
Saw this reported earlier today in the New York Times. The Times’ news “story” was basically a left-wing hissy-fit that she betrayed environmentalists, public employee unions and activists (i.e., Communists) by not agreeing to the tax.
I have a metropass and take the subway regularly when in NYC same for the tube in London. I am a tall and big guy 230lbs+ with a skinhead and huge Viking sized beard with a not too pleasant demeanor people tend to not make eye contact and get out of my way. It’s also obvious I am a biker even when not in leathers my visible ink gives that away. I most recently was in NYC January this year for 6 days I uber’d late at night to avoid a NYCs finest and the PI charge not the subway people.
I wonder if those "migrants" will be voting in 2025, 'cause Eric Adams is going to need it if Hochul pulls this stunt.
