I'd prefer not to see horses used this way too, but I think the pollution and danger from all the cars and buses is much, much worse. They should ban the private cars, and force the taxis and buses to be EVs, and install protected cycling lanes to get more people onto bicycles.

Cars, trucks, and buses, what do you think?

What a truly, utterly bizarre thing to say!

Why on earth do you object to horses pulling carriages? Do you object to horse riding also? If so, why?

One can only suspect you are used to living in a city and somewhat divorced from nature, though I'd be interested to hear your response.
