Good! A car is kind of like a carriage, but it moves without horses. It has an engine, and you're the one actually controlling where it's going unless you have a self-driving car or something.
Between those and trains, yeah! People still ride horses but usually out where there's a lot of space, or at a stable. They're pretty expensive to own, too.
