New Yorkers weigh options in case of transit strike

Reuters - 1 hour, 38 minutes ago

NEW YORK - New Yorkers dodged the proverbial bullet on Friday when a threatened subway and bus strike did not materialize, but without a contract settlement with transit workers the specter of a paralyzing shutdown still weighed heavy. "I will have to take the whole family in a car," musician Noah Bless said about strict car-pooling rules requiring four passengers that Mayor Michael Bloomberg is imposing for midtown Manhattan traffic in the event of a transit strike.

They delayed the strike in part for 4 days, but have scheduled a couple of strikes in other parts. Going to affect a lot of people. Hope the workers do get what they deserve though!
