This hardly makes a difference since you’re already fucked most times by grid lock if you’re in a car anywhere in Manhattan. If you need to get across town faster, do what the rest of us do, and take the subway.
City has 10 parallel car heavy paths to get from point A to B : normal, good, as it should be.
City has 9 parallel car heavy paths and 1 person/bike/transit path to get from point A to B :
A travesty, doom for business, the unraveling of all civilization.
Totally understandable, they don’t seem to list the car crossing locations until it’s a few days before the event. For example here’s the car crossing info for the Queens open streets this weekend (pdf link)
I’ve never taken a cab across town, but I don’t live in Manhattan itself. Bus, train, or just walking has always been enough. (Or biking, for the brave)

It would be cheaper to buy a new car and abandon it at your destination than take a cab across town
How is a 20-40 dollar cab ride cheaper than a new car?
Out of curiosity, do you live here?
