Op-ed | ‘Eyes Without a Face’: Time for Billy Idol to ‘Rebel Yell’ about NYC’s failed anti-idling program
Billy Idol's 'Billy Never Idles' campaign in NYC allows citizens to submit videos for fines on bus idling violations, but the program faces criticism for lack of due process, fraud, and unfair targeting of private bus companies. Critics argue it disproportionately harms small businesses and creates a double standard by exempting public buses.
