Nicole Gelinas\\xa0joins\\xa0City Journal\\xa0associate editor\\xa0Seth Barron\\xa0to discuss the recent bombing at the Port Authority Bus Terminal, and how the city is managing the streets in midtown Manhattan to\\xa0handle not only gridlocked traffic but also the threat of vehicle-based\\xa0terrorist\\xa0attacks on pedestrians.

On Monday, December 11, New York City was\\xa0stunned when a 27-year-old man from Bangladesh attempted to detonate an amateur pipe bomb during the morning rush-hour commute.\\xa0The incident took place less than two months\\xa0after another man\\xa0intentionally\\xa0drove his truck onto a lower Manhattan bike path, killing eight people.

Following a number\\xa0of\\xa0deadly vehicle-based attacks in Europe, large\\xa0global\\xa0cities have taken precautions to preventwould-be\\xa0terrorists\\xa0from running over pedestrians\\xa0with motor vehicles.\\xa0But in New York, measures taken by the NYPD and\\xa0city\\xa0transportation agencies have left many people wondering if the streets are any more secure than before.

Nicole Gelinas\\xa0is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a contributing editor of\\xa0City Journal, and a columnist at the\\xa0New York Post.
