I would hope they do, unless there's some work thing that takes them out of the city into bumfuck nowhere - which I can't imagine what that is.

Prefacing my comment with, as always, "I'm a car guy", I'll say this: Cities are not the place for cars, and NYC is fucking amazing for being carless, at least when I visited. It could of course be even way better, and as I understand, that's what Mamdani's trying to do.

We have better cities for public transit and walking here in Europe, but in terms of North America, I think NYC is one of the best.
