They aren't "law enforcement" they are "revenue enforcement".
Yes, "congestion pricing" is simply taxation by another name.
LE just follows the laws. You should blame it on the politicians and people who voted them in.
Always has been.
@@1576cpc , good point. But what sort of person intentionally takes a job whose only purpose is to oppress their friends and neighbors?
Jesus was crucified for pointing out the taxes
So not only are you paying ungodly amounts for rent, car rental space. . .you also have to pay just to "enter " the business district. . .that is beyond insane!
why would anybody want to drive in New York city driving is the slowest way to get around
@@scruf153 Because if you use trains, you will get screamed at, insulted, and possibly shoved or vomited on.
The most reasonable mode of transportation is obviously a paraglider.
Car infrastructure costs a lot. I don’t use it, why should my taxes pay for it?
@@scruf153right! It’s just rich idiots in their cages who can’t be bothered to possibly sit next to a poor person
That is usually what happens when progressives take over. You are either ultra rich or ultra poor. The middle becomes poor or is chased away.
I can’t imagine owning a car in NYC. Break ins. Rats chewing wires. Absurd parking costs for owners. Traffic jams. Insane insurance costs. On top of the payment
I can’t imagine living in NYC let alone having a vehicle

No air quality, noisy neighbors, Bedbugs …
Flushing that 30 story toilet drops like a vertical meteor into the sewer system, pushing that special perfume up from the sewer grate , mmmm , and then pay 40$ to park in the street , nice
i cant imagine actually living in NYC> why!!!
it’s funny cause I started watching this channel just out of curiosity to see New York City Apartments, and cash does a really good job of it and I always enjoyed the channel. Am I the only one who is actually enjoying him reporting about what’s going on in the city, the conditions and the financial situations for apartment renters and owners as well as all the citizens in an around the city? I actually enjoy the news reporting more than the original tours of apartments. I think it’s a wonderful mix that he has done in the past with his travels, with his family, and now on the subjects that concern all New Yorkers, good job cash keep up the good work
I think most people show up for the investigating journalism more than the other stuff. I'm not from New York. I live about 60km from Vancouver, Canada. Very similar issues, though.

Here's the thing to remember: laws only matter to the law abiding.
OHHHH YEAAAAAAAAAAA WE ROCKIN WITH CURTIS
Let’s go Joe Biden best President ever you can’t stop the bluewave liberal America 🇺🇸
Or when the people in charge actually care about said laws. Like all land lord in NY lie about the size of theirs properties for DECADES and not a BEEP.
Then Trump get single out. Yes, I am pissed because I had reported about this before but get ignore.
@@MaxAndersonnwhy do you comment this on every video ?? Such a weirdo bro get a life
So what's your solution? Anarchy?
Obviously, laws have their place, and we have systems in place to enforce them.
A lesson I learned as a kid is the people who follow the rules suffer the worst consequences. It's a shame but here's yet another example.
So true
Ghost cars are stolen anyway. Only the law abiding citizens suffer. Criminals walk out of jail with Mets tickets
it's a rigged game and the house always wins. Either play or get played.
is that what happened in other places congestion pricing was implemented?
True. No good deed goes unpunished. Whereas those who lie, steal, and cheat get ahead in life. This story isn't about the cheats with fake or non-existent license plates. This story is about our corrupt government stealing from the masses.
As someone who runs the office for a plumbing company, I 100% guarantee you the customer is paying, not the plumber. This is brutal for you guys 💔
The customer always pays 100%. They're the sole source of revenue. It's not possible for anyone else to pay.
I imagine it's nothing compared to what an NYC plumbing bill was already.
They whole plan of Big Government is to eliminate the middle class.They knowingly set this up..with every understanding that businesses will collapse and fail.. You need a President that wants America to be wonderful!
It’s not just that NY politicians (and even the voters) have too much power, it’s that they are so amazingly bad at running things. Eventually, the financial sector will leave, and you’ll start watching NYC, and most of the state, decay.
Tolls are just so wrong , and usually where the property taxes are so obscene. Or in no-mans land , where you’re just lucky to have comerce
Had something similar in major cities in my country for environmental reasons.
In the end truckers refused to deliver anything inside "the fart sniffer bubble" and the snobs there got pissed they couldn't get their sparkling water anymore so it got revoked after just two months.
Yep, the solution is for ALL biz to leave NYC.
They put in more cameras every year on the guise of SAFETY and SUSTAINABILITY but this is a MIDDLE CLASS TAX. Fuck everything about this. This is a situation where I have yet to find a single citizen who is in support of this change yet the government desperately running out of money is looking for ways to milk the last little bit of money from any law abiding citizen they can.
It's a Poverty Tax!
It’s just like the horrid red light traffic light cameras that can ticket you $100 for doing a right turn at a red light if you don’t stop for more than a second when turning.
@@casedistorted so stop there for a sec, !! its for your own safety for got sake, ! stop there for 3 seconds or even more, look to your left , right see if no one is coming, see if no bikes, kids, pedestrians and then safely go. what is your issue dude?? isn't SAFETY worth your 3 seconds?!
China did it years ago. No surprise the Democrat Socialists are creating a similar Surveillance Society. Wait until NY starts its social credit scores
Hi. A congestion charge is a great tool to persuade people to use the road during less busy hours meaning that more can drive into the city. If you don't like congestion charges. What alternatives do you suggest?
Thanks!
As an insurance adjuster, I've seen so many situations where people file claims against other drivers using just a plate number to identify them and it ends up pointing to the wrong car/household. It's really bad!
The person that hit them probably didnt have a license and police dont come to car accidents anymore unless there is a near fatal injury
That;'s a damn nightmare. Imagine one of those clowns getting in a serious accident with injuries and he doesn't even have a plate number. Who's paying the bills?
It’s a real shame that the NYPD no longer deals with most traffic accidents. The defund the police movement resulted in so much fraud in my city

This is one time I actually agree with those disobeying these unjust laws. These new players readers are borderline tyrannical. Kudos to them and I hope more follow suite
I moved out two years ago and didnt look back! Perfect timing. Cant wait for this to go into effect just to see how messed up this is going to be.
thanks! didnt even notice you were gone
I moved out 13 years ago, still no regrets!
Here in the UK the cloning of number plates is a problem. There have been people in Scotland who have received fines from London. Not only have some of them never been to London, some have never even been to England.
Interesting. I was wondering the "rampant illegal driving" thing was a problem elsewhere.
They say that like 20% of drivers are illegal in some Florida cities.
@@TheRealE.B. Different kind of illegal? Did you watch the video?
@@653j521 Various kinds of illegal.
In Florida, the problem is mainly with vehicle insurance, licensing, and registration. Also, those tinted license plate covers mentioned in the video. Different than congestion pricing, but the open defiance of the law in broad daylight
is still there.
Or did you think I was referring to immigrants?
@@TheRealE.B. It's a simple cost to benefit analysis. If your daily commute includes tolls, and you compare your monthly toll bill versus how much a no plate or plate cover ticket costs in your state, it's pretty clear why people are doing this. There's also people who try to be more clever about it, e.g. affixing a small trailer or bicycle to obscure a plate, or poorly displaying a plate through the rear window or dashboard
Number cloning is not just a NY or UK thing, it happens in Brazil too, have seen some cars of people getting fines from down south when they have never been there before
Love your non real estate videos calling out the city for stupidity at its finest
Seriously! They just keep getting better and better!
All his non real estate videos 🔥

@@Zipp333 it would be commiserating with the people and calling out the city.
NY is screwed, this bs on top of the migrants. Buckle up, best bet is to get out.
They get exactly what they voted for when they elected the mayor and there officials to office.
Taxing people for driving on streets is un-American. Freedom is movement is a constitutionally-protected right.
NYC gov't is hell-bent on staying the course of stupidity. Good luck, it's gonna get a lot worse before it gets better. What's next, a $5 poop flushing fee? (Probably shouldn't give them any ideas 😉)
I agree but when its subjects (those governed) are obviously just as stupid, how else would they operate.

Wow, your video reports have gone on a higher level. So much information and search about NYC 's everyday actual life. Congratulations
Dude he's actually just been killing it.
Yup, he went from click-baity apartment showing videos to in-depth journalism. If he keeps this up I'll actually sub!
Had to stop watching for a bit. It was a bit depressing. But in spite of the louder voice against it, this is scriptural about what is going to happen in the last days before Christ’s return! I still feel bad for New Yorkers suffering because of someone who probably makes more money than any number of people on the sidewalks of the city yet they refuse to be law abiding like the lions share of the public!
SO much property tax revenue, stacked on top each other , find the money leaks , cancel the tolls
The city apportioned funds for a “use” , it gets looted(to another purpose, administration) , they ask for more , and more …
I just want to point out that the truck where the plate was under the lift gate, thats a fairly normal place to stick the license plate on those trucks. When I worked for Penske truck rental almost all the trucks had their plates mounted there. Ya i get its hard to see it for a camera, but its in full view to meet the law that states it must be visible for DOT/police. Also for the USPS van, they dont need plates, a Post Master explained that one to me. The ID number on the van (seen in the video briefly on the upper side of the left rear door) is how the post office tracks the vans and deals with registration, no need to stamp out thousands of US Government plates for the mail trucks.
I actually miss seeing apartments on this channel and what they're going for right now. Since stats "claim" NYC rents are the most stable in like 2 years, it would be great to see the great deals right now, especially in off peak season.
u definetly swallow mainstream media nonsense. New york is a dying prison state.
Our city is broken and run by people who live in fantasy land.
R0THSCHILD RULES !!!!
We have this congestion charge/ULEZ here in London, Birmingham etc, it hasn't reduced congestion, it's just increased the cost of living.
Exactly! It’s a scam
Congestion? is just an excuse to get more money out of citizens.
@@BeefJerky_FromNewJerseyyes it is just like them charging for plastic grocery bags when the store is filled with plastics.
and those who own a car complain about not having any money
It’s Extortion, pure and simple .
If I was a cop in NYC, I wouldn’t even bother trying to give out tickets for people avoiding the tolls.
Keeping up with the Louis Rossman NYC saga without getting constantly shafted by the state and with a little more data than just saying "this shit is stupid and we all see it" (we didnt need stats to know the outcome of more tolls, but its nice to have them). I'm glad someone is still documenting this and I hope NYC doesn't come to attack your livelihood next.
Just one more law that affects middle and lower class law abiding citizens. Everything is going to increase in price. Workers coming in to work on your apartment? Price raise. Restaurants price raise. Absolutely insane.
This is all to make room in their budget for 2 billion for illegals they allowed in. Who do nothing but commit crimes and freeload. How New Yorkers haven’t taken their own “officials” hostage is beyond me. America is pretty much gone. Just tolerating being oppressed.
Yeah who do you expect to pay for things!? It's not gonna be the rich people or the stay at home people, they're too important to pay their fair share! >.>
Who came out with this dumb stupid congestion thing?
I won't enter that area at all for any reason even with the subway. I refuse to spend any money in that hunger games zone
Why don’t we all get together and protest this Bs so that way it won’t happen? Power in numbers. Fuck MTA and the dumbass politicians who support this. Their pockets are lined
If people haven't figured out that NYC isn't for the common man yet....they never will. A city built to be catered to the whims of millionaires and billionaires.
Any bigger cities in America
It wasn't always this way. I grew up in NYC in the 1980s, and it wasn't this expensive. Middle class and working class people could afford to live there.
And the illegals
A city without a middle or artist class loses its culture and its soul.
Exactly, but a lot of the young trolls here have no idea of what NYC was like before gentrification. @@sarafstop32

They don't, but NYC will keep coming after you even after you leave
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 @@BastiatC
I left. Life is better.
I’m a New Yorker here in Brooklyn, don’t own a car but yet the city is becoming unbearable to live in. I’m about to move into an apartment not too far from where I live but plan to leave New York as it’s becoming a difficult time to adjust my lifestyle here. I love New York City but the love for it is slowly dying.
I fled ny in March 22. Will prob never move back. It's too expensive. Too crowded.
If you move to a state that is "Red" and much more livable/affordable, remember that NYC's voters/leaning brought that stupid sh!t about. All their fault
What's the average rent like?
When you inevitably leave, make sure you don't take your awful dem voting patterns with you. Pretty much what caused this mess to begin with.
I can vote however the f I want.
I live in Miami and some cars have automatic shields where the drivers can press a button and bring it up and down to cover the plate to avoid express tolls on i95. Down here no one gets in trouble for anything though LOL
the more the authorities try to charge us for bs - the more we will do it. thanks for the tip, im gonna mud mine up now!

A crime only punished by fines or tolls is not a crime. It's a fee for the wealthy.
easy fix..file restraint of trade complaint ..city cant interfere with commerce...bye bye tolls
@@user-wy6mo1vr8tI’d love to learn more, can you cite a reference to what you’re referring to?
And a tax on the poor
@@user-wy6mo1vr8t This is a law to regulate traffic, and as such well within the "Police Power" of New York City. No one is being banned from going into that part of New York City, if you want to drive into that part of NYC you just have to pay the toll.
@@paulmentzer7658 and there are international treaties s and USA federal law that prohibit ANY restraint of trade that isnt bon fide..tolls are hardy bona fide ..are you aware cops can be in serious shit interfering with inter state commerce for same legal reason??
One of the biggest issues we have here in Maryland (especially "Baltimore") is folks registering their cars with VIRGINIA tags w/o any residency in that state.
This is also driving up the taxes in MD when someone with said VA tags get in an accident and aren't insured, so MD has to pay the difference in damages to the other motorist(s) involved
Sad part is people getting hit by these cars bite the bullet .
Only % 5 of hit and run drivers get caught because of fake plates
I have never even visited New York and yet this is one of my favorite channels. You're a legend.
If you do, it will cost you an extra $15.
shielding their license plates is NOT getting away with murder, great video
it could be if you end up hitting someone and run without a plate
Still not murder. That would be manslaughter. @@LiamMartens
@@Winterascent not if it was intentional
And only if you can prove that with motive, but if someone was intending to murder someone with a vehicle, would they use their own car? There a quite a few road rage instances where they could not prove intent, so it was manslaughter. @@LiamMartens
@@Winterascent so then by this logic a car is a pretty good way to get away with murder if you are so confident it would mostly be categorized as manslaughter if it is difficult to prove intent. So in that sense, you are getting away with murder.
Either way though - that's not really the point anyways
Cash, I legit never thought of the businesses that rely heavily on transportation. I thought the fees would only apply to cars and saw it as annoying. Now that you’ve changed my perspective, this totally blows my mind, and it’s absolute insanity to apply this congestion fee in the city. Wow 😢
Part of the plan is to encourage trucks to go into that part of New York City at off peak travel hours, do repairs at night, deliver items at night. Why deliver food at Rush Hour? Thus lower fees when traffic is less. People will adjust to work around these fees which is the intention.
@@paulmentzer7658As a former OTR refrigerated trucker I'd just avoid taking loads anywhere Near NYC!!
Y'all can starve and turn into 'Escape from NewYork' for all I care.
remember it is a one time fee pr day, so for a service plummer you might do 8+ jobs in a day so it is an upcharge of 2$ a job what is not really a big thing and if you do day long jobs you will adjust to start earlier leave earlier to get the lower fee. delivery vans can spread the cost out even more. it is honestly not that bad but in the end of the day yes ppl inside the congestion zone will pay more, but you will anyways pay more as your trade will calculate travel time in as well.
@paulmentzer7658 Not every business can do overnight deliveries. No matter how many supporters of this try to spin this, this will increase costs for everyone even if they don't drive like myself
This is a scam and I hope it fails in the courts. This will hurt people in the long run
@@Mira_linn
Please don't sugar coat this situation. Charging the people to drive within its own city limits is inmoral and criminal. People pays taxes when they purchase a car,then to register the car. Pay taxes when they pump gas,when they car park at the meters and the city already has tunnels and bridges with expensive tolls.
The city needs to stop the mis manage of city moneys. But because it is a harder to put the effort and find a way to balance the budget the lazy MF'ers at city hall and the legilative members rather take more money from our pockets. People cannot afford this. Is just too much burden on those living here
When I was in England I heard about vigilantes spray painting cameras black and dismounting them. The more cameras they put up the more they get vandalized and the vandals are viewed as working man heros.
🗡️🏃
Heroes of the stupid and criminals...
No, they're viewed as vandals here. Breaking the cameras just puts more strain on the finances to replace them
They are called blade runners.
Not all heros ware capes
It’s not about congestion. It’s about creating the highest tax increase in the city’s history and they are specifically only targeting lower income commuters and delivery drivers. Im not a “block the road “ protest supporter, but when the protest is related to the road, and it would deny the city the traffic revenue, it would be appropriate here.
I heard that these are tolls are additional the regular tolls already in place. So Lincoln Tunnel would be like $32.00 during peak times.
Brooklyn Bridge/Manhattan Bridges and maybe the Williamsburg bridge are not toll bridges.
Also residents of Upper Manhattan (Above 60th street) are preparing for parking garages to increase their fees and for street parking nightmares.
Lived in NYC for 20 plus years as d can tell you the only people who ever pay are the blue collar and middle class. Those who never pay and who this barely affects is the rich folk. It's always how it's been
So rich folk gets around by what? Sure as hell not the subway.
@@nulnoh219 ...they're rich the city has unlimited options for them shit they can pay a man to carry them via horse still. Fuckin Uber helicopter
I bet diplomat plates don't pay
The congestion pricing should be based on the cost of your car. If you have a range rover or rolls royce, you should have to pay extra
@lukylex The goal is to empty the middle class out of NYC. The elites want NYC to be the Abu Dubai of the of the West. The only people that can live in NYC are the ultra rich and the newly imported slaves from South of the border. And don't even think about staying in the NE part of the US, because there's not a lot a houses in the region, and you will be priced out. You will be force to live in the Midwest and The South.
I mean... at $15/Day for a toll to cross a street, assuming you use for work every 5 times a week, it would be $300 a month in tolls, or $3600 per Year.
In that instance.. it can be cheaper to just buy a cheap car w/o plates, Save like $4000 in overall tolls and dmv fees in the year that you use it, and even if it gets impounded and u lose the car, it might have only costed $2500-3000 so you are in the green regardless. I bet there are many people who do this.
They voted for this. Need money for immigrants.
I don't blame people at all for finding ways to stop from being robbed by this horrible city. The greed is out of control. I hope people wise up and abandon this city one day.
And that is just one of the many reasons cities are in debt. People do everything they can to avoid paying taxes, but that doesn’t eliminate the essential functions taxes cover.
@@rc100692 I would agree...if those taxes were used responsibly. But with all the corruption I wouldn't give a cent and don't blame anyone else for not doing so either.
@@rc100692 the taxes doesnt seem to be enough. NYC is tax heavy and every infrastructure is a complete shit show
@@Enzo575 Too many fingers in the pie. They bring in more than enough, just very poor at using it properly.
@@rc100692 Other places that implemented congestion pricing fixed up the transit FIRST to give people an alternative. That makes sense. NY has never managed to fix it and only keeps finding new ways to charge people. Trust me, no matter how much they raise, they will not improve the transit. But we will hear in a couple years that the price has to go up anyway. The same thing happened with water rates here. Water used to be free. Then they started charging because "we need money to fix the aged infrastructure." At some point they raised the rates and continue to raise the rates because "people have cut back on water usage". These are revenue generating programs for NYC, no matter what other goal they claim. By the way, the water infrastructure is still breaking down.
They equate this with getting away with murder? How disconnected can they be?
If they hit someone, yes that is m*rd*r
Its never gna stop😂😂😂The only people not doing it haven't figured out how to do it yet
Plus, the cops have bigger fish to fry. They don’t have time to look to see if everyone has a valid plate.
Are you talking about 0:51 cuz it's an expression. You must not be the greatest at English
I think he means people have literally snuck into the city using this way of covering up their vehicle identity to actually murder somebody and then escaped without anyone knowing how they got to or from.
Gotta admire the vehicular rebels' creativity :)
Just another reason why I will NEVER go to NYC. Never have never will.
Who said the government was on our side? All they care about is our money and how to get it!

I think that Cash has found his niche in this more journalistic type of video. How many can watch endless apartments the middle class can't afford in bad neighborhoods with 20 minute walks to the subway? I'm glad to be seeing more of these.
Why don’t they make exceptions for commercial vehicles since they’re actually providing an essential service? I know there would be people taking advantage, but the net gain for working class people and businesses should outweigh that.
Gotta pay for that sanctuary city.

Seriously, how does it get this bad while the ppl just keep taking it? Insanity
May as well not be illegal anymore if all those cars are coming in everyday.
if everyone who comes in obscures their plate, then the city can't really do much.

To answer your USPS question, no, postal vehicles are not required to have plates. They are special exempt federal fleet vehicles.
NYC had an idea to raise the price of a parking ticket in the 1980's. That idea was ditched. They keep it at an "enticing amount" so motorists take a chance at parking. They don't want to reduce volume of vehicles because they will lose money.
People need to get away from this collapsing city.....
I watch this just to remind myself how crazy is to live in NY. I was offered a job in NY at the end end of the last century. Not accepting that job was the best thing I ever did. I continued to live in Midwest I have a great comfortable house with an acreage it costs a fraction of what a NY condo would cost and comes with none of the problems I would have in NY. If I moved then I probably would still be renting in NY 25 years later and not have a family.
we literally dont care
NY is a toilet. You made the right choice.
I think $15 is frigging insane for passenger cars. If they cared about congestion, they would regulate the uber/cab drivers that take up 50% of the road. They're the reason why people don't take the trains simply because it's more convenient. This whole thing about charging everyone is pretty stupid when they should be really focusing on tracking down illegal cars. NYC suck, Mayor Adams sucks, and MTA sucks!
I mean this is a horrific thing. The businesses incurring these charges, they will certainly push it onto the customer because that’s how its done. So that means services, food and other things that are important that cannot take public transportation will go up. As someone who manages a small electrical business, this is how it’s done.
The 10k folks evading it should be heralded as heroes.
Interesting take. How much are your prices going to go up because of this change? The charge is ~$24 once per day. How many customers would a truck service in the affected area in one of those given days?

It seems like the Democrat party is trying to get rid of all Mom and Pop shops..
Thank you Cash for pointing this major problem out. The only ones who suffer here are the working and middle class law abiding people who are most likely to pay the fines that add to the city’s revenue. That’s revenue supposedly used to pay for the MTA’s deficit which is made worse by turnstile jumpers and other fare evaders. NYC is not friendly to those who aren’t cheats and thieves anymore.
This will reduce the traffic for sure. But there's always a two side of the coin. Casual tourist that used to go to the "City" will now rethink where they will spend time and money. Rather than the Big Apple, areas surrounding the City will instead become of viable option instead.
How else are they going to pay for all the illegal immigrants?
Sticking it to the man, I approve! NYC is getting way too silly to live in, or drive through. Way too much power and authority over its people.
👏🏽
It was always silly to drive through. That's why you shouldn't have any sympathy for the morons driving in NYC.

@@Last_E_iz_A_thre3 Same or use the ferry. Getting out late night using the also unreliable MTA Express bus
Or just don’t drive?
@@MattLashbrookOh yeah clearly everybody can walk to every destination ìncluding their jobs that are not a walking distance 🤦♂️
NYC is so screwed up, toll cameras are just another example of out of control greed.
Forget tolls and fees in NYC.
New York City needs vehicle coding as is done in Manila, Philippines.
Based on license plate numbers, a private vehicle is required to be off the streets from 6 AM- 7 PM one day each week, excluding weekends and holidays. This reduces the amount of vehicles on city streets by about 20%. Commercial vehicles would be exempt.
London did something similar, they have groups of people going around destroying and blocking the cameras.
It’s insane. The tunnel tolls are too much as it is. Guess I’ll never see my family again. They’ll have to come to me in PA.
How about: NO tolls, NO problem? NYC is already too expensive. Greed has to stop.
Too bad, people have left and now there are less people to tax, so you have to tax whoever is left more to cover it, or you'll run a deficit.
@@haroondaman7162 ... or run the city more efficiently...
thank you Mr. Jordan for giving me my daily dose of NY news. You are Great!
I just love your videos. It doesn't even matter which topic, it's always nice content!
Madness- I hate this idea, brings out the worst in everyone- but thank you Cash for reporting the truth of our beleaguered city❣️
Plate tampering should be treated as DUI . you can get away with murder if your vehicle can’t be identified
How soon will New Yorkers treat these cameras like Londoners did in their city?
How is it that you can come to the city without citizenship and have a right to housing but if you are a legitimate citizen with a job, you don’t have the right, simply drive for free into the city to get to work?!?!? Living in the Midwest I must say New York City has the most bizarre value system and it does not work!!!
....AND with new cars being designed with "kill" switches, the city/state will be able to disable your car wherever it sits if you don't pay those fees (whether those fees are rightfully yours or not)!
don’t buy new cars
You would have to allow them access to your cars systems, and being that You own it, you could just take the time to learn how to delete the kill switch as once you own something it's your Right to be able to work on it, if I don't have to have a kill switch in my 95 Ford then you don't Have to Legally have one in your Tesla or whatever, just gotta take the time ta go on TH-cam and learn how to do it
Cars dont have kill switches ffs stop the bs 😂
Cars are toxic
@@WANDERER0070 Yes they do. OnStar will shut down a car if law enforcement asks and have been doing it for years. Every car now is connected to the manufacturer's service.
Those tolls are just going to trickle down to the customer, product or service will just cost more to the consumer to make up for those tolls.
01:59 I agree with this guy. If you live in Manhattan, you should not be paying any tolls for driving in Manhattan. Your rent, taxes, living costs, etc are already high enough.
If New Yorkers and New Jersey people were smart, came together in a common cause, every single one of you would obscure your license plates so you wouldn't have to pay the toll as a protest to New York City. The police cannot stop 10 million people from doing this. I think every single driver in the New York area to do what it takes to not pay this toll
I actually don't mind seeing people break these laws. New York City has gotten really bad with nickel and diming people. That and some of the most strict and overreaching car regulations in the country
Exactly, I think Cash is wrong for calling toll evaders “criminals,” because they’re more like soldiers of justice to me 😎👍
@@vault1021 exactly, I'm in Southern Nevada as of September and it looks like I left at the right time 😀
i've been to NY city twice a long time ago, i can't believe anybody lives there, living here in Florida is heaven compared to that hell hole.
It would be nice if they didn't rebuild the city to enable you to drive everywhere. You'd think the largest American city would be built for people
Thanks for not coming back.
@@MrSloikaStay in your hell hole New York City where you have the biggest homeless population and stores closing left and right from smash and grabs 😂😂😂😂
People voted for it celebrate,,, America is over
I work in the transportation business delivering produce i was told by merchants that congestion pricing fees will be pass down to the consumer, the city is compounding the problem New Yorkers should really fight like hell to get rid of this shit
oooh taxes being passed down to the final consumer? oooh whooo could tell taxes are a bad thing to the average worker's pocket? thank you captain obvious!!! saved my day!!!! reasons why I'm anarchist
Newyork did it to itself, adding so many businesses that cannot survive without pulling in more people than the local residences can support, then providing homeless service and rent caps for those who can't afford to live in such an expensive neighborhood. It is better to not stack humans this way without adding adequate transit lanes.
It is also better to spread out businesses.
If only New York realized these cameras were a shit idea
This is going to be a huge disaster.
As a Euopean I've tried to say the same things many times in "Not just bikes" videos...
That the idealized narrative he sells only really works if you're a upper-middle or upper-class citizen.
This is what's happening in many European cities:
- 1. It always starts with NIMBY building policies to prevent new construction to preserve the "identity" of the city.
- 2. After housing and rent prices have gone through the roof they remove public infrastructure like street parking for residents, which disproportionally affects the working class who are most likely to to need a vehicle for their job, or they work in areas with poor public transport options.
The upper-middle class is most likely to work in the city centre in areas that have great public transport, or that can be easily accecable by bike, as well as being much more likely to live in new construction that has built in underground parking, or is able to afford underground parking near where they live. Or they are just straight up rich enough to own houses with garages within the city.
- 3. When the working class have moved out of the city due to sky-high rent and no street parking, they gentrify the area for the rich upper middle class.
- 4. The working class who were first forced out of the city now have to commute back in for work, leading to a huge increase in congestion in and out of the city.
- 5. They put up toll booths on roads leading in and out of the city, disproportionally punishing those working class people who no longer could afford to live there, but still have to commute in for work.
TLDR; It's cheap to be rich, and expensive to be poor.
What city do you live in which doesn't have great public transportation? Here in Prague it is a lot easier not to have a car...
At least in most of the Europe you have incredibly convenient public transportation, to and from the bigger cities. US and NYC has completely dysfunctional systems in place.
So if you are outside of the city, transportation is often out of the question.
There are hundreds of thousands of people entering Manhattan just from New Jersey every day (which is just across the river), yet the most recent infrastructure project to connect to NYC was complete in 1930s. These are overcrowded and often fail :/
Lincoln tunnel: 1937,
Holland tunnel: 1927,
North River train tunnel 1908,
George Washington bridge: 1931,
Path train tunnels: 1908.
And don't get me started on healthcare :/
@@opart Yes definitely, It's a case of "Carrot and stick". The best thing to do is to investing in infrastructure to support great public transportation and alternative means of transport, but not at the expense of those in society who are the least affluent. I don't know what all the right answers are, but always using the stick is not the right answear.
@@Oysteims Absolutely. I've been driving in NYC for last 15+ years, and honestly if it was about congestion, they would regulate Lift and Uber services instead - 8 out of 10 cars in Manhattan traffic are now T&L cars.
I assume you are in Norway, and if you are disappointed with what is going on there, you would be outraged with what is going on in NYC or US in general.
I just came back from Denmark, where once more I was reminded how efficient the transportation can be, and how messed up it is in US.
US is great for rich, young and healthy. Everybody else... not so much.
@@Oysteimsexcess traffic is caused by too many people in one area. A combination of poor border controls and failure ti build new cities to accommodate a growing population. There’s vast areas of undeveloped land nobody is using for farming.
But it is easier to tax people for living their lives so the councils and local authorities can continue to squander money on vanity projects 🤢
The USPS delivery fleet does not have state license plates as USPS is a federal entity. The vehicles do have an identification number. There are USPS vehicles with license plates, but they are not normally used to deliver the mail.
This just clears the roads for the rich folks😂😂😂 and keeps the poor from wanting to even travel into the city 😢
Our band used a rehearsal studio in mid town. Our drummer came from jersey. We were all poor. It cost our drummer gas, toll and rehearsal space fee to come. This toll affects artists as well. A world without art is no world at all.
@@elementgypsyart is the heart of nyc! Boring rich people will kill the whole reason people go
2:10 the fees being once a day isn't really good even. It means if you just need to go in and out you'll be charged the same as someone spending the whole day
Edit: 75% off a bullshit fee is 15% too much. 6:00 this is a wide sweeping generalization, Cash is cherry picking a perfect example to support his argument.
Oh yeah I’m a New Yorker driving in the streets of NY since 1986….DOUBLE PARKED vehicles specially commercial delivery trucks that sit blocking traffic is the real reason why there’s a lot of traffic in the city
I will never understand why anyone would want to live in a major city, and why corporations are still stupid enough to have operations there.
The best thing is channels like NotJustBikes or whatever that try to force suburbs to become cities and talk about how awful freedom is. There is a legit group of people that want to be imprisoned in a city with no ability to leave
Corporations are apart of all this, they lobbied for an increased population plus backroom deals with politicians.
The big corporations don't pay the high taxes, they all negotiate loopholes to operate nearly tax free. Even if it means giving the money to a "woke" charity run by a shell company that has people connected to higher-ups in said corporation in their salaried directorship. Only the sucker goes to these people's schools, lives in their mega cities and works at a pointless job in one of their corporations. Get out while you can.
Generally for living because density makes it easier to do things like walk and take transit, meet people. It gives you the freedom to have a night out without having to worry about parking, who's going to stay sober, or paying $80 to lyft to and from. Not to mention density means more economic opportunity, more job options that sort of thing. For businesses it's the same deal, more foot traffic, more prospective customers, more prospective talent, zoning codes that allow for developments that fit their needs. There are all kinds of reasons you'd want to be in a big city.
do mutants just like repeating this kind of nonsense.
Watching this guys videos is quite reliving. Knowing that your city doesn’t suck as hard as NYC.
CA could be the exception? Close contest.
@@madewithscrapsCali is worse
Post office trucks don't have plates but the serial number is painted on the top of the truck. In any case, federal government vehicles can't be taxed by state and local governments.
I have seen tinted license plate covers in Massachusetts as well. I'm surprised that the police don't catch them. All you can see is just black. Front and back.
you: $50/day to cross the river from NJ
migrants: free bus from texas
There is a bus and a train. The PATH is actually pretty amazing. I took it last week and it was 30 minutes from Jersey city to midtown.
Some of those restaurants might pack up and leave to other boroughs that don’t have congestion pricing.
WHY NOT HAVE THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS PAY A TOLL FOR CROSSING THE BOARDERS !!!!!!!!!
Have the homeless Americans and addicts to while the immigrants at it
