How To Get Into Manhattan If You Have Fewer Than 3 People In Your Car

George Washington Bridge

We were taking photos of a flooded out fire station in Hoboken when we heard an announcer on the radio declare, "The 3-person rule is being strictly enforced on any crossing into Manhattan."

Luckily, there were three of us. Not so luckily, I live in Jersey. After some deliberation, we decided that I'd just head in with them and then head right back out on public transit.

Understandably, I was dubious about heading into the city unnecessarily, but I didn't want to leave my coworkers hanging.

We passed up the Lincoln Tunnel headed north, as the AP posted a story about long lines to get into Manhattan and frustrated people.

But when we got to the George Washington Bridge, we found a breezy, easy entrance into the city, and a nice little lady at the toll booth who explained to us, "the 3-person rule is only for certain crossings. The George Washington Bridge is not one of them."

In fact the George Washington Bridge is the only place where the 3-person rule is not in effect, according to CBS. The rule will be in effect on other bridges and tunnels until midnight tonight. Next week is to be determined.
