Some hippy environmentalists want to start making NYC’s mass transit system free and charging people who drive a congestion tax for clogging up the streets and polluting our air.
Environmentalist Theodore Kheel has funded a $100,000 study conducted by mass-transportation advocate George Haikalis of the Institute for Rational Urban Mobility to prove the plan could work. Congestion pricing forces drivers to pay a toll for driving in certain heavily traveled areas and at certain times.
We’re not sure whether or not this would work, but as much as we love to save a couple of bucks, we’re almost afraid of how crowded the trains might be if that were the case.
