I work in center city. I can’t stand the carriages. I believe the drivers think the horses are treated well and I believe that they may even love the horses….

However, center city traffic and conditions do not treat the horses well and neither does the road. Breathing in exhaust all day, being inches away from being struck by cars, the honking, the exhaust, the sirens, etc.

This isn’t the 17 hundreds. There’s no place on the road for these animals in center city and to pretend otherwise is a farce.

I'm so glad they got rid of these. Even as a young kid when I was in Philly I knew the horses didn't like it. I could never understand why they did that.
