What I've read says that you aren't charged unless you cross the boundary. If you reside inside the zone and never leave and enter again, you won't be charged a toll.

Someone should tell these people about gasoline (or electricity) if they think "having to pay to use your car" is an insane notion.

  1. Yes cars cost money to maintain.

There are some issues with the way they've implemented congestion pricing, in my infrequently-visits-NYC mind, but this complaint is outside of them.
