A recent collision between two horse-drawn carriages in Central Park led to the hospitalization of both drivers, reigniting the debate over the safety of this industry. Advocacy groups like NYCLASS are using this incident, which occurred on May 26, to argue for a ban on horse-drawn carriages in NYC, citing it as evidence of the dangers posed to both humans and horses. Past incidents, including the death of a horse named Ryder, further fuel criticism against the practice, raising concerns about the treatment of animals in tourism.
This incident has renewed the debate about the safety and ethics of horse-drawn carriage rides in New York City, emphasizing the need for stricter regulations.
NYCLASS advocates argue that the collision is evidence of the inherent risks associated with horse-drawn carriages, calling for a citywide ban on the industry.
