I mean, that’s great, but isn’t this still seggregating people?
Sorry, I’m not even familiar with how NY works, but as a generalization, I think that if you put a fee, you’re not necessarily going to remove cars from the streets, but select what cars will be on the streets.
Or maybe this does work, it’s been succesfully done on other fields, like tobacco consumption. Idk, I just feel like these things are unfair somehow, I hope it helps tho.
NYC is very much public transit and bike focused. A very significant portion of people never even learn to drive. The only cars on the road are business, rich people, and ubers. Some parking spots have a higher income than many service workers.
Unfortunately, there’s also next to zero enforcement of traffic laws so people get hit and killed by cars daily

Poor people do not drive into Manhattan. Without congestion pricing it is too expensive.
