the staff of the Ridgewood blog
Ridgewood NJ, the $1.2 trillion “infrastructure” bill rammed through the House last Friday includes a multi-billion slush fund that will allow the Biden Transportation Department to bypass the states and spend the money at his discretion — because he is so knowledgeable about transportation having served as the Mayor of South Bend, Indiana. United States Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg will be able to allocate these funds for such projects as combatting climate change and righting the “inequities caused by past transportation projects.” He thinks federal transportation policy has been systemically racist.

This Northeast city is the worst place to own a car, new study says

Owning a car offers freedom and convenience, but it also comes with stress. As with most big purchases, the state you live in can have a huge impact on costs, and a new study confirms that car ownership in coastal cities can be a time consuming and expensive experience.
According to SmartAsset, a personal finance advice site, Newark, NJ, is the worst city in the United States to own a car. Why? Newark’s proximity to New York City makes traffic a nightmare, as nearly 5 million people in the metro area attempt to drive to work every day. This gridlock costs the average driver $1,739 in traffic costs, due to travel time and extra fuel consumed while idling.
To compile its list, SmartAsset looked at several factors of car ownership, including number of hours spent in traffic, annual cost of traffic, the number of repair shops, accessibility to parking garages, stress, public transportation options and theft.
Speaking of theft, Newark is also a tough on car owners because, well, your car might get stolen. According to the New Jersey State Police, there were 2,412 total motor vehicle thefts in Newark in 2014. That is equal to 8.66 car thefts per 1,000 residents. In comparison, Arlington, Va. had the lowest number of thefts per capita on SmartAsset’s list, with 157 thefts a year, or 0.7 thefts per 1,000 residents.
