Reply to comment by blacktongue in PSA: For those of you who operate non-electric vehicles, note that the NYS sales tax holiday on motor fuels is expiring tomorrow, so fill up before January 1 and save about 40c/gal. by HiFiGuy197

I’d take both.

Every single thing we can do to disincentivize loud, expensive, dangerous space-consuming cars having priority to the streets would be a net benefit to the city. We’ll always need some, but we could definitely stand to have way fewer if the city would just proportionally invest in public transit to compensate.

100%! Long story short I drive to work because it saves literally over an hour roundtrip. I would LOVE to have efficient and reliable public transit instead. I’d have to take a subway to a bus, and that bus goes extremely slowly because people park in the bus lane and all through Church Ave 18-wheelers double park to unload.
