A lot of the people on here are missing the fact that the BQE is a primary way to get to the Verrazano and on to NJ to get to a destination outside the city, where a car is a necessity. Simply expanding transit (which I support) instead wouldn't do anything for people leaving the city.

What if, and you might need to sit down for this, we could expand transit beyond the city borders?

Then you're at a train station in the suburbs with no car. Though by the time it would take to actually do that we'll have self driving cars.

Also, transit will never meet everybody's needs. It's a large country and most of it is car dependent.
