The famous City Council bill known as Ryder’s Law that aims to ban horse carriages in the Big Apple will now be called Romanch’s Law — after the 18-year-old tourist fatally tossed during a ride last week. The bill was pitched in 2022 by former city Councilman Bob Holden after tragic horse Ryder collapsed on a hot August day and later died and then reintroduced for consideration again this year by Councilman Chris Marte — who said he will now change its name to honor tragic teen Romanch Mahajan. “For years, New Yorkers have warned that horse-drawn carriages put passengers, workers, parkgoers, pedestrians, and horses in danger,” Marte’s office said in a statement Sunday.
