LITTLE BLACK, Wis. — Nine people were injured in north-central Wisconsin when a vehicle rear-ended an Amish buggy at “highway speeds,” authorities said.

The crash was reported about 2:45 p.m. Wednesday in the town of Little Black, the Taylor County Sheriff’s Department said in a statement. Ten people were in the buggy as it headed north on a county road. The release said eight of the nine people injured had “significant injuries” and were transported for medical care. Their conditions are not known.

The 35-year-old driver of the vehicle is being held in the Taylor County Jail on suspicion of operating under the influence of a controlled substance and inattentive driving, authorities said.

These accidents happen ALL THE TIME. It’s 2021, horse and buggy shouldn’t be allowed on public roads anymore. It’s a danger to the horses.

What about the horse?!

Buggy’s need to be banned from roads

Ugh not again. This has happened before. I remember around 1992 I think.
