horse-drawn buggies

Carriages without engines

Horse-drawn buggies are light, wheeled vehicles pulled by horses, typically with four wheels and seating for two to four passengers.

The term evokes a pre-automobile era, though horse-drawn buggies remain in use among Amish and Mennonite communities: We got stuck behind a horse-drawn buggy on the rural highway.
