Then come up with a better way to get people where they need to go.
Making things worse for car owners isn't the right strategy.
And BTW, public transport is not good enough, not even in places like NY, you need something better.

Walking is also nice for shorter distances. Or bikes.
It's called walking, biking, transit. These things all work. If you don't wanna walk a couple blocks to your car, sorry but that's not worth killing the planet and your neighbors. Cars have SO many externalities: air pollution that affects climate change, pollution that makes the air less breathable, noise, danger to others, takes up far more space leaving less room for other modes, etc.
I'd guess you've lived in NY for a long time and have forgotten (or never had to suffer through) how bad public transit is in most US cities.
