Agreed@John Maler.

And cferrejo, the MoveNY plan does not impact drivers traveling to Brooklyn or Long Island from Queens. In fact, outer tolls would decrease in price, for example between Queens and the Bronx via the Throgs Neck Bridge. The new tolls would only affect drivers traveling into the Manhattan Central Busines District.Additionally, congestion pricing in other cities has not led to an increase in the cost of goods. In fact, deliveries are expedited thanks to reduced automotive traffic which saves businesses money.

Thank you for your comment, John Maier. Can you think of any means the state gov't could use to implement protections on your concern about unauthorized Queens park and rides?

When the public cares enough about my safety to provide a guarantee against further sexual assaults, I will go back to taking the train. As it stands, after 25 years and dozens of offensives I changed careers so I could drive to work, pay for my own parking and drive home. I have not been assaulted since then. Don't you dare call me criminal again! Calling people who drive lazy, wasteful or selfish makes you look like a self-righteous jerk. You don't know what you are talking about.
