How about going from queens to NJ? Some people need to pass through Manhattan in order go somewhere else. Because it was designed this way unfortunately
I wouldn't count the highways. If you take the BQE to the Harlem River Drive to the George Washington, I'd call that fine. It's the people that want to drive a single passenger vehicle from Midtown tunnel or 59th street bridge to the Lincoln or Holland tunnels smack dab across some of the densest concentration of people in the entire country that ought to be highly discouraged.
