Tornado Alley (PROG)

In this instance, going against Gridlock Sam is going against expert opinion. I'd bet the writer of the article you posted, who is not a world famous traffic planner, will be proven wrong in time, instead.

You still don't address the issues of people "driving" into a city and what becomes of their cars once there, which was 1 of my 2 points. Taxis are irrelevant in these cases, hanging around or no.

The Andy Cohen who wrote the article you posted is apparently a NYC Council member. While his heart is in the right place, he's hardly an expert.
