I don't live in Manhattan, but I do have a car that I drive fairly regularly. Obviously I park the car as well. I can imagine what facing the repeal of the tax exemption in Manhattan would be like. I agree that this is a more complicated and difficult decision that many on both sides of it would like to admit. Generally, I favor the repeal painful though it may be to some folks in Manhattan. Maybe some of those in Manhattan would consider coming out to the boroughs. It can be nice, and it would reduce the number of cars in Manhattan. Plus, if transit is going to improve as much as this bill claims, it should be relatively easy to get back in and out of the city whenever we want.
