TWU Local 100 statement after a passenger is killed...
“We are devastated that a passenger died after injuries sustained today in the accident in Central Park, and our thoughts and prayers are with the victim’s family. Safety in the park has been a growing concern among many, and improvements are needed for all vehicles, including e-bicycles, delivery vehicles, pedicabs, and horse-drawn carriages.”
So their driver lets go of his horse to take pictures. Horse takes off. They say improvements in park safety are needed. This is like the USTA saying they're working on integrity. Also, they do this all the time leaving horses unattended and can't understand how they get loose.
