Meet the doorman, waitress, taxi driver and other NYC commuters who could be forced to pay over $2K in congestion pricing tolls

Many working-class New Yorkers, like doorman David Viscaino, feel the toll increases from congestion pricing will severely impact their finances and threaten their livelihoods.

Viscaino stated the new scheme adds unfair financial burdens on commuters, with his weekly tolls potentially reaching $45 on top of existing costs for gas and parking.

He lamented, 'You need to have money for everything,' highlighting the growing financial strain on working-class families due to increasing transit costs.

Alternatives to commuting, such as public transit, aren't viable for Viscaino, making the congestion pricing effectively a 'double tax' on essential work commutes.
