City Council Member Alan Gerson is suggesting that the congestion pricing fee be on a sliding, income-based scale, and that it not apply to either vehicles owned by non-profit organizations or those coming to Manhattan for medical care. Call it a Progressive Pigovian Tax, a reference to Professor Arthur Cecil Pigou who reckoned fees affect behavior. For your tax planning, we can imagine the following congestion pricing worksheet to assist drivers in calculating what the plan to reduce traffic and emissions will cost them, on a per-ride basis.
