The cool thing about congestion pricing is that you can still keep a car in Manhattan for free as long as you don’t leave the congestion zone.

Keeping a car in Manhattan is the closest thing to having superpowers most will ever experience - and I’m sure with congestion pricing the equation is even better.

The superpower of dealing with parking in Manhattan (whether paying or circling for a long time) is not the superpower I want to have
What exactly is the superpower here? Having a large chunk of steel you need to micro manage the location of, or pay up the nose to have a dedicated space for?

Have you ever ridden a bike? Taken the subway? Heck, you can just use a taxi to get around. Why would you want to deal with having a car in somewhere like Manhattan? Do you hate your fellow citizens so much you need to be constantly insulated from society?
