1. Horsecart

A horsecart, or horse-drawn vehicle, is a wheeled vehicle pulled by one or more horses and controlled by a driver. Horsecarts may be used for transport, agriculture, tourism, recreation or ceremonial purposes.

Because horses can react unexpectedly to traffic, noise or sudden movements, other road users should reduce speed, leave sufficient space and avoid actions that could frighten the animals.
