The FDNY will be forced to use firetrucks and other heavy vehicles to move firefighters around the city because smoke eaters will no longer want to drive their personal cars into manhattan, warned

Two of New York City’s firefighter unions are criticizing the city’s newly-implemented congestion pricing plan, stating at a press conference on Sunday that the $9 toll will hurt response times and hike overtime fees.

The tolling program, the first of its kind in the United States, was introduced just after midnight on Sunday, and imposes a $9 toll on drivers entering Manhattan’s busiest areas.

Meanwhile, New York’s bravest are sounding the alarm on congestion pricing. Union leaders say this could slow down the response time of first responders arriving at a fire. FOX 5 NY’s Meredith Gorman has the details.
