So I already paying 4,272 a year in car insurance, now additional 2,808 yrs on stupid tax to come to work, this is friking insane. MTA needs deep audit, that's the only thing they really need.
New York is tragic. Citizens already foot the bill for illegal immigrants' food, shelter, and healthcare, and now they're hit with another tax to fill the pockets of corrupt politicians. It's time to prioritize American citizens over this wasteful spending
The irony of all of this is that when folks start packing up and moving out of the city in droves , they have to pay a congestive price toll just to get out
@@yell0wberry Ya'll really do just make up stuff. It doesn't cost a congestion toll to leave NYC. At least get the facts right before you post the troll comment.
I live in Washington Heights by the George Washington Bridge and traffic during rush hour is insane. It’s about to get a heck of a lot worse with congestion pricing and I’m not here for it!
the idiots who say its a good idea are the ones who dont own or drive a car. come on now, most of new yorkers drive. you really think the subway is safe in this time
Actually over half of NY'ers do not drive. Only 700k vehicles enter the CBD by driving but millions enter by train. Driving is A LOT more dangerous. The MTA only had 44 people killed due to subway violence last year, but 250 people died because of car accidents in NYC.
Only about half of NYC residents even own a car. And that's less than 25% if you restrict it to Manhattan borough residents. And car owners are disproportionately high income families.

Pennsylvania, 319 U.S. 105 (1943), is a landmark Supreme Court case that addressed the issue of whether a state can impose a license tax on the exercise of constitutional rights. The Court stated that a state cannot convert a liberty into a privilege, license it, and charge a fee for it.
Yea the whole congestion pricing is illegal, they cant toll the roads in NYC without either transfer the roads from NYC DOT to MTA, then they could toll but the road condition will be just as bad as the subway, or they make a major change to the road (like make a bridge or tunnel) but THEN they would have to use bonds on it and once the bonds are paid off THEN they WOULD have to lift the tolls, but thats if they didnt transfer it to a private company (which is why the Thurway is still a toll road)
@@yell0wberry There is no money!! Article 1 section 10 no state should coin money except gold and silver only gold and silver could be used to discharge debt. The state cannot force you to accept the privilege in exchange for a right.
Most people who work and live in the zone do not own cars, you can take the train too if you would want to avoid the toll. There is a abundance of train lines below 60th street which is why it is chosen to be tolled. And before you say that the subway is dangerous, driving is A LOT more dangerous. The MTA only had 44 people killed due to subway violence last year, but 250 people died because of car accidents.
I want to thank Congestion Kathy for making my life THAT much more difficult and unaffordable. I am a caregiver for my mother with Alzheimer’s. I am a lifelong resident of Manhattan. I now make under $40K a year. I struggle to put food on the table every day and pay my bills and LEGITIMATE TAXES already. I guess it’s not only the republicans who punch down...
@ I have an E scooter and I use it from time to time. Can’t always use it in bad weather (and it’s winter time now.). Plus, I’m always hauling around big bundles of groceries, etc. for mom. Plus, I have to carry around a lot of other awkward parcels for work. I also have to take mom to doctors appointments, etc. None of that would work on any kind of bike or scooter.
There are special programs for low income residences and people with disabilities. Ride the train like the majority of people do, it is a lot cheaper than driving.
@@wiz553 I think I pointed out above why it would be very difficult for me to ride the trains. I usually get out of work between 3 and 4 AM. I’m a drag performer. Do you suggest that I get on the subway at that time in full drag? Why don’t I just light myself on fire? Lol. Plus, mom is immunocompromised due to cancer treatments that she had in 2019. The doctors say that she should stay away from public places like that. Besides, why should I when I own a car? A car that I carefully budgeted for. Who would think it would be an extra few hundred dollars a month?
Driving is A LOT more dangerous. The MTA only had 44 people killed due to subway violence last year, but 250 people died because of car accidents in NYC.

Everything is going to cost even more. Your groceries your rent small business will close. Everything. Good news though for us in Queens Brooklyn Bronx… big money opportunities because no one will want to hit the city for restaurants and bars. The city is gross anyway

Fake license plates and those digital license plates that people can turn off is gonna be so popular now. If New Yorkers won’t even pay the subway fee, what makes you think they will actually play by the rules and pay congestion pricing?
Where is all of these money going??? Congestion is starting tomorrow and it's predicted make millions and the MTA have increase the fair to 3$ now. The train station is not safe still, they mad people in New york and every is getting more expensive.
It will fund new railcars and buses, station renovation, interborough express, second ave subway phase 2, structural repairs of the subway, and new elevators as said in the MTA's capital plan. Driving is A LOT more dangerous. The MTA only had 44 people killed due to subway violence last year, but 250 people died because of car accidents in NYC.
@@wiz553 Well you must not be from around here, MTA is literally the Money Taking Agency. If you actually think that the money is going towards their infrastructure then you'd be dead wrong. Plus I believe they want to raise the subway and bus fare so as they do congestion pricing they still gonna raise the fare. its BS.
I call BS. I was driving on the BQE today and the toll applies to going into Williamsburg as well. Since when is Williamsburg part of Lower Manhattan!?
It will have NO effect on traffic. But it will hurt drivers' pockets and line the pockets of various politicians and bureaucrats. And yes, . . . Hochul will "politically", lose her head (the only good effect of this mistake).
Absolutely NOT because the toll plan structure barely hits the Uber and Taxi drivers and it's mostly hurting the business and working class of people who drive into the City with their trucks and vans to help service the city and have no choice but to either continue working/paying or get another job and quit just so they could take the more deadly MTA and risk getting pushed into the tracks or stabbed or set on fire.
MTA and the City Gov.. where are the money gave!!! YES, we all want better services for all people.. BUT they can't event manage current situations with all the money going in. Do we need that many cars? If you can't get Public Transportation safer, clean, on-time, frequency. This year the MTA Train price will be up again.. They will hit us in every directions. The question is who pocket will hit fist and the most.....
The MTA needs to worry about all that lead paint they have cracking peeling off the subway walls esp the walls by the tracks. Ppl are inhaling nothing but toxic air in the subway as well
They did this in many cities in Europe but its a lot less money and like you said about electric cars, electric cars are able to enter that zone for free in the European cities.
The problem is that the special interest has centralised the vast majority of the commerce and well paying jobs in that district. The district needs to be decentralize into the other boroughs of the city. Also the mta needs to stop pouring more money into more subway lines in manhattan , and connect the bronx to queens or brooklyn by subway so people can bypass manhattan when going to other boroughs. This would shift more economic activity into more depressed parts of nyc like the bronx. There would be some gentrification in those boroughs, but better paying jobs there can have some offset to that.
US Supreme Court Decision - “All codes, rules, and regulations are for government authorities only, not human/creation in accordance with God’s laws.

So when did the MTA get the rite to vote on wasting my money??? The MTA should get Audited by DOGE. 80% of wasteful spending will be Stopped . Yes 80% what has the mta doen wirh what they have been given NOTHINGS . Don't fix problem jus throw money on top of it.
Young guys at the stations without supervision do not pay their fare for the subway. I live by the High Street station in Brooklyn and I see every day young guys jumping over the turnstiles.
If you don't want to pay the tolls, then don't drive and take the train. Before you say that it is not safe riding the train, diving is A LOT more dangerous. The MTA only had 44 people killed due to subway violence last year, but 250 people died because of car accidents.
@@wiz553you say "don't drive" like some of us have a choice. It's obviously hurting the people that have to drive the most for work. Just look at the payment structure and it explains all. It Targets the working class and business vehicles the most. Meanwhile taxi and uber barely have anything to pay and are the reason for majority of the traffic. This isn't even a fare tax!!
Drivers paying for mass transit, but no money to improve their terrible roads, with obsolete design and terrible pavement conditions. The BQE is falling apart. Highways are the lifeblood of the world's economy. Not one loaf of bread you have ever purchased has made it to the grocery store by mass transit.
So let me ask this question? If I'm heading to Queens, and I'm taking the FDR To 59 Street To Queens Without Pay A Toll Where I To Get on 59 st Bridge To Queens?
Since this plan is very unlikely to be defeated in court because the Supreme Court is very unlikely to even take up this argument, I think with the billions of dollars this plan brings in, I would expand construction on the air trains in LaGuardia and JFK to connect and run throughout all Five boroughs and have them stop at main hubs in every borough. It’s an extremely ambitious project, but at least they’ll have enough money to do it. keep it at its current price, it would drastically reduce the foot traffic on the buses and subways as well as the vehicle traffic going in and out of the city.
The MTA needs to be audited like I've been saying for years.
They can’t. They need non-transparency so that they can send this money to their active war zones.
As long as their are democrats in power it will never happen. Anything that adds to the burden of working class people is a win for them.

Since this plan is very unlikely to be defeated in court because the Supreme Court is very unlikely to even take up this argument, I think with the billions of dollars this plan brings in, I would expand construction on the air trains in LaGuardia and JFK to connect and run throughout all Five boroughs and have them stop at main hubs in every borough. It’s an extremely ambitious project, but at least they’ll have enough money to do it. keep it at its current price, it would drastically reduce the foot traffic on the buses and subways as well as the vehicle traffic going in and out of the city.
What about the Queens Boro Bridge ?

They are ruining the city with those tolls
Interesting.
Trust me guys. at the end of 2025, MTA will still lose money even with the congestion prices. You know where those money goes
