Hearing this from our Sober Eye of the night is NOT great. Who the fuck did this????
But the good news is it turns out I/we did actually clean up, I just forgot bc I was blacked out
Sitting in dead center of Times Square traffic with 10 bottles of wine and a bunch of cheese board utensils in the most beat ass Honda accord with no air conditioning
See you soon @ronedotcom
Thank you, Kelly! Our organization has been working for years to shut down these deadly carriages, and as you know, many horses have collapsed and died while pulling carriages and we’ve been warning that it was only a matter of time before a human was killed. The carriage drivers are still behaving in exactly the same way that led to the death of Romanch, leaving their horses unattended, even with children and babies in the back.
The attached video was filmed on July 14. It shows a carriage driver leaving his horse completely unattended in traffic, with passengers still in the carriage, including a TODDLER, so he could walk away to take photos. This is not only a violation of the law, it is a reckless disregard for the lives of everyone involved. On a busy New York City street filled with traffic, noise, sirens, horns, and countless other frightening stimuli, a horse can spook and bolt in a split second. Had that happened, the toddler and the rest of the family could have been thrown from the carriage, while anyone in the horse’s path could have been seriously injured or killed.
This is exactly the same behavior that led to the death of Romanch Mahajan. It is not an isolated incident. It is standard operating procedure. Visit Central Park on any given day and you will see carriage drivers leaving their horses unattended over and over again. We have so much other footage likt this No amount of regulation can change a culture that has operated this way for decades. I it needs to end before another avoidable tragedy occurs.

We’re so close to banning the Central Park horses!!! Thank you to all of the @NYCCouncil members who have signed onto this law, including @SpeakerMenin and assembly member @KeithPowersNYC - @NYCMayor, pls commit to saving the lives of New Yorkers (and horses)!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@BillyDaKid_27@NYCCouncil@SpeakerMenin@KeithPowersNYC@NYCMayor The conditions are only a portion of the problem - the city is simply too busy for something like this to exist anymore. The horses escape a lot and run into traffic/etc. I wish they could make it seasonal/limited time! But nobody seems to even entertain that idea
