MODERATORS
You guys should email the NYPost and show your disappointment. Maybe, if enough people emailed them and showed them how you, the readers, do not agree with the way they do things, they would change it.
Obligatory: fuck cars. I am of the opinion that cars might just have been our worst idea.
NYPost does not care about what their readers think. Their only job is to push a certain agenda. It is a propaganda rag.

I love my car just the same as I love this post because I would despise driving in NYC

it is funny because the editor of the article think this title is negative, while the one who voted for him are most likely looking at the title and saying "that is who I voted for"
I’m so sick and tired of reading ‘oh, New York City busses are the slowest,'” slammed Stacey Rauch, a Murray Hill resident who takes the bus every day and argues the problem is the lack of busses – not the fact they’re slowed down by cars.

This may be the dumbest quote in the whole dumb article.
