A droshky or drosky ((ロシア語:дрожки); (ポーランド語:dorożka)) is a term used for several types of carriage, including: * A low, four-wheeled open carriage used especially in Russia. It consists of a long bench on which the passengers ride sideways or astride, as on a saddle, with their feet on bars near the ground.〔(ARTFL Project: Webster Dictionary, 1913. ) American and French Research on the Treasury of the French Language, University of Chicago.〕 * Various two-wheeled or four-wheeled public carriages used in Russia and other countries. The name comes from the Russian word ''droga'', pole of a wagon. ''Baroosh'' was, briefly in the 1850s, a colloquial Muscovite term for the Droshky.
