Car-hater Ben Furnas has been appointed to Mamdani’s transition team for transportation, climate and infrastructure – and his agenda is a nightmare for the city’s drivers.
Like I refuse to be lectured on people who want a mandate on the only acceptable way to get around.
How adorable they love their precious automobile so much they can’t enjoy it unless everyone drives too! All that infrastructure is real expensive compared to public transportation.
So carbrains, “HoW aRe YoU gOiNg To PaY fOr AlL oF iT?”
Obligatory remark about how even driving gets better when a city has proper bike and mass transit infrastructure cuz the people who choose to take on the expense of owning a car have less traffic to deal with.
When driving is a genuine choice and less people drive: the driving experience gets so much better. Imagine not needing to twiddle your thumbs for hours because of some incompetent drivers ahead of you.
