In Tokyo, there is no congestion pricing, but instead there is a ban on larger trucks loading/unloading during many hours of the day. Everyone from the businesses to the truckers and retail workers tolerate it and work night shifts (often without overtime) because the culture (for better or worse) emphasizes the needs of society over the individual.

Would such a policy work well if brought over to the states? Given the amount of tangentially connected regulations and special interests such a strict ban may just increase prices and make things worse.
