Manhattan's congestion pricing proves to be a "predictable success" - only took 50 years for politicians to test economists' theory! 📊 Results: 10% less traffic, 70% fewer noise complaints, and buses so efficient drivers must wait to stay on schedule. Who knew charging for city access would work?
Congestion pricing in Manhattan is a predictable success

I like Judge Lewis Liman. Anybody that calls this Administration's arguments "manifestly incorrect" is ok by me. I'm gonna use that from now on. "All you conservatives are manifestly incorrect."
NYC’s finally joining the club.

It costs *checks notes* $18.31 to drive a car from NJ into Manhattan, but drivers are enraged about the extra $6 for #congestionpricing
Con meno auto stanno meglio tutti, anche chi guida un'auto
Ennesimo esempio sul campo:
In 100 giorni di #congestionPricing, a #NewYork, i tempi di percorrenza in auto sono diminuiti, essendoci 80k auto in meno che entrano ogni giorno.
E chi non è in auto?
- Gli autobus devono RALLENTARE per rispettare gli orari
- dimezzati i feriti causati dagli scontri stradali
- pare che non si senta quasi più suonare i clacson!
