A comment on New York City will charge drivers going downtown. Other cities may be next. Parent comment
Structure the fares to charge a premium for low volume riders. Work two days a week? Pay for 5.
Collect fares.
Raise bridge tolls.
Drop construction cost drivers. Change liability laws, reduce MWBE requirements, mandated staffing levels, etc.
There’s lots of potential areas. Just politically expensive to do.
I think that would incentivize people to drive more, not less.
