No Cars Allowed
September 3rd, 2010
My city is a big tourist town. The main reason people come is the island seven miles away. They hop on a ferry, and they are literally taken back in time. It is the only place in the country that does not allow cars. People can only get around by horse and buggy, bike or walking. They wanted to allow cars back in the early 1900’s. However, the horse and buggy drivers threatened to leave because they scared the horses. The buggy drivers won, and cars were forever banned from the island. Now, visitors can still enjoy all of the island’s beauty without the noisy distractions of a modern city.
