Why are horse riders not made to clear up when their horses fowl in the street?
Believe it or not, some horses are required to wear ‘horse nappys’ to prevent this problem. This is an article from Scotsman.com News: HORSE-DRAWN carriages in Blackpool are to be fitted with “nappies” to keep the promenade free from droppings. Landau drivers had volunteered to follow carriages with a bucket and shovel in their desperation to keep the tourist town clean. However, council chiefs had other ideas and ordered every landau at the seaside resort to be fitted with a rubber and plastic container that will collect the droppings. The scheme had previously proved successful in Great Yarmouth where 17 landaus are fitted with the “nappies”.
