Anyone know?

Does anyone know what those types of carriages are called where people, instead of horses, pull them? I need to do research for a story I'm writing, but don't know what they're called.

A rickshaw! Word of the day.

I know exactly what you're talking about but for the life of me, I can't remember their proper name.

A rickshaw or a sedan chair!

^_^

Gotta love wikipedia.

RICKSHAW! That's it! Damn, that was about to drive me mad.

They're called rickshaws.

Thank you, Robot Chicken, for forever embedding that word in my mind. :D

You've peaked my interest. What episode of Robot Chicken was that?

It was... lemme think. A spoof show starring Rick Schroeder as Rick Shaw, a San Francisco cop who's carted around the city in a rickshaw pulled by a Chinese guy. Looks like that one's in Season 2, episode 28. :)
