But how about those who live there?

In order to go on vacation, we still have to get our car out of the garage, drive it to our apartment, and load up the luggage.

Most sensible people do this on Sunday morning, when there is hardly any traffic.

I'm not sure you'd even be charged for such a short distance. It depends on how the plan shakes out, I guess.

The key phrase in the entire article, IMHO, is that "even a small reduction in the number of cars greatly reduces congestion.." This is 100% true. Anyone who remembers any of NYC's taxi strikes knows that even with more people driving into the city, traffic flowed much easier during the taxi strikes, when you took about 4-5000 cabs off on Manhattan's streets..
