The horse-drawn carriage was still in use in the early 1950's, even though the automobile has been around since the turn of the century. I remember the ice wagon bringing ice for our icebox (non-electric refrigerator) each day in a horse-drawn wagon in 1953. I live in an area of Missouri heavily populated by Mennonite familys, so I see horse-drawn wagons nearly every day in my home town.
Horse-drawn carriages became obsolete.
The purpose of the automobile when it was first invented was to provide a faster and more convenient mode of transportation than horse-drawn carriages.
Horse drawn carriages never stopped because they still have horse drawn carriages. Technology got more advanced and they started making cars and vehicles and so carriages became less popular.
