The carriage horses suffer--that is old news. The efforts to allay their suffering thus far really don't help much: they continue to be hurt during bad weather, bad traffic, and when they spook, inside or outside of Central Park.
We all know that the best way to make progress is to bring all sides together to resolve issues. Let's not just address this issue by creating bills without consulting industry experts, drivers and owners: everyone should sit down together to come up with acceptable compromise that will be a good solution for the horses, the drivers, the tourists, and the City.
