Missed chance to charge pickup trucks more than smaller cars... You have made perfect sense to incentivize smaller cars.
Considering it was a blocked by the governor during the first attempt, I'll take this for the win that it is.
Also, given that NYC isn't as prone to the big truck phenomenon that plagues the rest of the country, that had the potential to backfire and hurt tradespeople more than rich folks with Teslas.
Same, glad to see this experiment on the roll.
I wouldn't even call it an experiment since it has been successfully implemented in London, Singapore (since 1975!), San Diego, Milan, Stockholm, and other cities.
Experiment for NYC at least haha. I didn't notice San Diego ever having conversation pricing though.
