Reply to comment by ArcticBlaze09 in NY lawmakers say they won't support MTA's planned fare hike for commuters by King-of-New-York
The MTA needs money to fund the subways. Part of the way the MTA earns money is from tolls. If they are able to bring in more money from tolls, they do not need to resort to fare hikes to bring in more money. Hope that clears it up.
You are correct that more people using cars does not encourage subway use. However, car users still generate revenue for the MTA.
