Description
Location: About 30 minutes from Canton, Ohio
Although the Amish religion allows the Amish people to ride in automobiles, as well as buses and trains, they are forbidden to own one. In fact, of all the worldly possessions available, the car is considered the most dangerous to the unity of the community and the purity of the culture.
Instead, the Amish use horse-drawn carriages or wagons for local transportation. These horse and buggies tend to travel at an average speed of 5 to 8 miles per hours. Since the Amish rarely travel very far distances, this leisurely speed is not a problem.
In fact, because the horse and buggy is so limited compared to the automobile, the people are more inclined to remain within the confines of their family and community, rather than outside of it.
