Tourist dies in horse-drawn carriage accident on idyllic car-free UK island A TOURIST has died in a horse-drawn carriage accident on a UK island where cars are banned. The Swiss woman, aged in her sixties, was sightseeing with a group on the remote island of Sark in the English Channel, when the carriage mounted a hedge and rolled over, The Guernsey Press reported. Nine others were hurt in Tuesday's accident, seven with minor injuries and two with potentially serious problems. All were transported to Princess Elizabeth Hospital on the neighbouring island of Guernsey, where the woman later died. Cars are banned from driving on the roads on the island of Sark. Only horse-drawn carriages and tractors are permitted. Read more about the horse-drawn carriage tragedy at The Guernsey Press
