However there have been 4 accidents involving the horses since 2014. Will there even be any horses left to ban by the time the ban takes place. 

This time a horse has collapsed and died.

Clearly something isn't right if horses are in accidents and they are collapsing and dying on the streets.

Here is a 2017 incident.

Something is wrong if animals are collapsing and dying. Animals used in the tourist industry anywhere seem to have problems.
The key word is used. The animals are used and exploited. We demand too much of them and they can't do it. At some point they just collapse and die.

Banning this tourist attraction is good. Now we need to look at the many other ones where animals are exploited.
