Interstate commerce is defined by the path you take, not by where you stop. In 1983, a bus company started a route from North Westchester to NYC. As you know, a portion of I-684 runs through Connecticut. This portion allowed the carrier to ignore NYSDOT, which was trying to kill the route and assert federal rights.In theory, I could run buses along Lexington Avenue and 3 Avenue as long as at least one run terminates in NJ. That makes the WHOLE ROUTE interstate, even though most of the buses would not cross state lines. This is what is going to kill the S89 faster than a legal case. If I start running buses in Manhattan locally, the MTA will get religion and that is what I am planning for next summer...or sooner. |
