Someone recently ran a New York City congestion pricing simulator and this is what they discovered in one weekday morning. If the pricing was in effect with just 22,252 cars this is what the city could net in just one hour. Let's just say almost a quarter of a million dollars is a lot of serious cash to consider.
Although the toll has been disabled for the moment, it's only a matter of time before it goes live and trafficers find an alternative way not to get charged.

Regardless this extra income would definitely be a game changer for the city and it's traffic problems.
