spooked carriage Horse

We witnessed a terrifying event at the hack line yesterday. Many of the horses seemed agitated that day but one in particular was stopped at a red light while a huge crowd of people were crossing.

He got agitated and was trying to go forward but the driver kept trying to hold him back so he wouldn't plow into the crowd of people but he kept on trying to move forward and all of a sudden he started bucking and rearing up.

Thankfully the crowd in the street dissipated (or ran out of the way is more like it) while the horse was bucking and this went on for 30-40 seconds. Finally the light changed and the driver was able to regain control of the horse.

Very frightening moment and yet another illustration of why these horses do not belong in NYC traffic.
