This is the moment a man using his phone while driving was caught - by two police on horseback.
Police video shows officers on horses on patrol when they spot the man speaking on his mobile.
One copper says: "He was on his phone - there he goes he's on his phone. That silver car."
They then gallop after the silver Land Rover Freelander in Taunton, Somerset - and pull him over.
One officer tells him: "You know you shouldn't be using your phone."
The man replies: "No, no music. I have a problem."
But the police officer points out there is a conversation going on and he was fined.

It’s crazy to think about how 110-ish years ago it was common to own a horse but only the rich had cars. Now it’s common to own a car but usually rich ppl afford a horse.

I personally think it's mainly because having a horse is very inefficient for the modern daily life. But having a horse today is "pretty" easy for the common, I think the hardest part is owning a large enough bit of land for the horse.
