Anybody living off SSDI is almost surely not driving into lower Manhattan to begin with. Parking is like $100/day there.

My understanding is that local disability rights groups favor the charge because it pays for improving access to mass transit, which is what they're already using

If you live in manhattan.

I used to love taking transit as a disabled person (when it was accessible), but now my condition has worsened so bad I cannot travel without being horizontal. Which means I need to pay caregivers to take me to medical appointments by car.

Even people outside Manhattan are largely taking public transit into it.

I get that it's almost impossible to get around if you need to pay for medical transport so you can travel in a horizontal position every time, and this does little to change that situation.
