Transportation


Who's that Man in the Foster Grants?
From Peter Frishauf, in New York:--
Taking aim at the richest irony of the faux-populist case against congestion pricing, Transportation Alternatives has released this ad [PDF], coming soon to a newspaper near you. The copy reads:

Drivers from Westchester earn an average income of $176,231.
Only 4% of New York City commuters would pay the congestion fee.
100% of the congestion fee goes to improving mass transit.

Do the math:
Congestion Pricing = Better Transit
You know, he even sort of looks like that other guy from Westchester.
