@RC: can you teach horse and cart driving as well as car driving?
Gardaí have arrested two people for being intoxicated while driving horse-drawn carriages in Dublin city. As part of a multi-agency crackdown, An Garda Síochána carried out inspections of horse-drawn carriages with the help of officials from Dublin City Council and the Departments of Agriculture and Social Protection. Some of the checks took place at the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin 8 which is a popular spot for carriage drivers to collect weary tourists.
A fire crew’s dog jumped on the pedal of a golf cart which then struck a 4-year-old Michigan girl, leaving her with no visible injuries, firefighters said. Bella, an arson dog, jumped down from the seat of a golf cart and landed on the accelerator pedal, sending the cart toward people attending a Friday night festival, the Westland Fire and Rescue Department said in news release. Firefighters attempted to gain control of the cart and steer it away from people attending the event. Before they were able to control the vehicle it struck a 4-year-old girl, running over her left leg, the fire department said. Paramedics assessed the child and found no visible injuries. Her mother refused further treatment and an emergency room visit, according to the news release. Ten minutes after the accident, the 4-year-old girl resumed eating her popcorn and jumping in a bounce house, the news release said.
Bella will be returning to the cart “with extra precautions in place,” according to the fire department.

Thankfully, the little girl was ok but incredibly, they'll letting the dog back into the golf cart! Is there no end to the madness?QuoteBella will be returning to the cart “with extra precautions in place,” according to the fire department.
There's no licence required to drive a horse and cart, Watty... but I could teach you the rules of the road which would help you drive the same (and, indeed, any other vehicle) in a safe manner. I could also teach you the basics of horse riding but I have no particular expertise in that area other than being able to ride in a competent manner myself.
