How can more stops be added when the truck has already left the warehouse with only what was supposed to be delivered on the route he has. Do you think companies send drivers with extra inventory in hopes that someone will place another order???? You are totally missing the point. There is absolutely no way to get more product onto a truck once said truck has left the warehouse to complete its route unless it’s coming back to home base to reload. There are thousands of businesses that don’t rely on huge trucks to get to them. It’s sad that you don’t realize that atleast 50% of orders placed by businesses don’t require trucks or vans. It’s the little guys with their personal cars doing the running around.

So how would you explain that delivery drivers can make more deliveries if there is no congestion. You would still have to travel out of the city to get the things you are delivering. You are ok with companies paying the same toll multiple times to get product into the city? Seems to me like people want this more for the city to get money rather than less cars. It just doesn’t make sense to me at all. Like I said before I bet you would have a different tune if this would be a toll on Walking around the city. There’s millions of people that congest the sidewalks daily, why not tax them also if they want to walk around?

Make more deliveries? Unless you talking about Uber eats or DoorDash, daily deliveries are mostly already set. A driver doesn’t magically get another load for deliveries while ALREADY being in the city. They would have to leave and come back just to PAY another toll. Make it make sense. You can go back and forth all you want but the bottom line is that it will help NOONE but the city(more money). Don’t cry when every single thing you need goes up in price again because of this.

Less money? That money was never there to begin with so how is it less without it? And people who have no choice but to drive for work MUST pay. If you only knew the amount of money that will be coming out of the pockets of people who aren’t really doing well financially( delivery drivers are making Pennie’s on the dollar now), I don’t think you would be for this. It just doesn’t make any sense why non drivers are promoting this BS money grab by the city. This is NYC, traffic will never ease up no matter how much they charge to get in.

You really thing a stupid toll will lower congestion? Lmao! The mta Mishandles funds on a consistent basis. Trains and busses always late. Sometimes they don’t even come. And you think throwing more money will fix shit? You are delusional. You obviously don’t understand how this works. All those tolls we pay already and the streets are filled with potholes.

You are clearly misinformed as to what and who actually delivers in the city. I can bet 50% of the deliveries that are made in the city are “ private cars”. How would you know if a car is being used for deliveries or not? Just because the plates aren’t commercial or the car doesn’t have stickers all over it doesn’t mean they aren’t working delivering. Subways are for people and roads are for Cars. All these stupid bike lanes weren’t enough for you? It’s crazy to me that “congestion” tolls are wanted ONLY by those who DONT DRIVE. the city needs to add a tax for walking on the sidewalks, let’s c how you like it.

Lol. You think that all deliveries in the city are made with trucks? Ignorance is bliss. Just say you want the poor to get out of the city to not inconvenience the rich. Just remove all cars from the city and take away all the street lights. They you can walk in the middle of the street without a care in the world. The rich won’t care about the price increases as long as the peasants aren’t around anymore. Funny thing is that ALL the surrounding boroughs have the same traffic problems yet they only want to implement this “congestion” crap where all the money and rich people are at. LOL gimme a break.

This congestion pricing is stupid. More money for the state and NOTHING in return for the average NY’er. If you think this will lower traffic, it won’t! Just wait till prices go up on everything because of this. The speed cameras are doing an impeccable job at stopping speeders huh? This city needs cars and trucks to survive.

It’s harder to leave a cult, that’s why.
