Well done. I believe horses can pick up on panic and the riders own unsureness. You remained very calm and I think that's why the horse stayed in control and relaxed. A rider that starts effing and blinding can't make the horse feel very safe

They do pickup on the rider's emotions but that won't necessarily stop a horse from getting spooked. That said a calm rider is better equipped to deal with a spooked horse as said horse doesn't need you panicking on top of whatever scared it.

I think what horse rider don't see, is how badly other horse riders sometimes behave, some have a really big chip on their shoulders and set out looking for trouble, typically by riding on busy/fast roads during rush hour, which is not only stupid but also dangerous to the horse. I lost my rag with one recently as she was shouting abuse at every car that went past, like she owned the f**king road, the drivers did nothing wrong and I even dropped the clutch to go past as quietly as possible, so when she started giving me abuse as well, I stopped instantly (that's how slow I was going) and I gave back with both barrels. The trouble is once a driver encounters one of these, they start to think "oh f**k it and f**k them, i'm not slowing down, they'll moan whatever I do".

I dont think any of the other drivers were rude. I think they did their best to share the roadway considering they might not encounter many people on horseback on a regular basis. In my opinion I would have preferred if you used the bike lane. Unlike most vehicles, horses don't have horns to give other drivers a warning if they're too close or not paying attention like that first driver.

I have an ex race horse as well and this is just a RECOMMENDATION: if your horse is ever spooked by sounds, then get some fluffy pom poms for their ears that will fit (Not cotton. It doesn't stay in too well, but it can be used as a last resort.). I use them on my horse and he does so much better if he doesn't pick up small noises. (And just FYI your horse may not like it at first, but reward them with treats after they accept it and eventually they will accept it.)

Die Fahrer können auch warten, und sie langsam vorbeifahren, machen das aber nicht. Es ist nicht die Autobahn, worüber wir sprechen. 'Den normalen Verkehr' in den Video sieht aus wie 1-3 Auto's jeden 5 minuten. Wenn sie mit das Pferd irgendwo hingehen muß (z.B. ein Wald nebenbei oder eine Weise) dann muß Mann doch nicht wegen die Vollidioten das Pferd im Trailer mitnehmen (was ihm auch viel Stress und Angst geben kann)? Ein Pferd ist auch normalen Verkehr, genauso wie einem Fahrrad. Ich habe mit +/- 13 Leute neben ein ähnlichen Autoweg gelaufen, auf Pferde. Am Ende haben wir im Galopp den Weg zurück gemacht, es gab nur so 4 oder 5 Auto's und die warteten vorzichtig, bis wir vorbeigelaufen waren. Am Ende gab es dann noch eine Großen Kreuzung, mit vielen Auto und wir haben gewartet bis es "grün" war. Dann sind wir weitergelaufen, alle zusammen, nur ein Pferd hat Angst für das Tick-tick-tickt-tick-tick von das Ampel, und wollte nur weitergehen wenn das aufhörte. Es lief rückwärts und das Mädchen (11 Jahren alt, ungefähr) beruhigte ihm und versuchte weiter zu laufen. Die Auto's hatten noch keinem Grün, aber das werde bald passieren, also versuchte sie schnell weiterzulaufen. Es war nicht schnell genug (es war immer noch nicht Grün, die Auto's mußten Stehenbleiben) und ein Mann in einem Auto hupte und das Pferd drehte durch und hat sie fast auf den Boden geworfen. Kinder auf Fahrräder, Pferde, Pferdekutschen und so weiter, sind auch teil in das Verkehr und es braucht nicht SO viel Mühe, sie nicht in die Hecke zu drücken. Egal was das Gesetz sagt, es ist wichtig für die Soziale Interaktion. Es kostet 20 Sekunden und die Zeit gibt es schon.

And lastly my horse is an ex race horse so even the sight of fields drives (or used to, god rest his soul) him bananas. And lastly, even if you can see a field , it doesn't mean your allowed to walk all over it, there are zero bridle ways here and the farmers fields are private property. Plus I like the village roads so that IF any thing happened to me, some one would be able to see/find me, where a in a field, if I fell unconscious no one would know where I was I hope that helps answer all your queries. :)

Often, you have to ride on a road *to get to a field*. There are decreasing amounts of bridle ways(there are none in some areas) to go through to avoid roads. Also, fun fact- most fields are owned. You can't go gallivanting in any random field. Cars kill more people, and humans can be just as unpredictable. How many people killed by dangerous driving? How many people killed by drunk driving? Horses can be easily spooked and the law says that drivers need to be wide and slow. Hope that cleared anything up! :)

THEN DONT RIDE ON THE FUCKING ROAD!!! ROADS ARE FOR CARS, FIELDS AND GRASS IS FOR HORSES. ! You put you and the horse in danger! Some people don’t know if they need to slow down. And some people can’t see you. And that van that was couldn’t move! Because your were taking up the road. ! So please don’t ride a horse on roads

honestly, you know absolutely nothing. the law clearly states that car drivers and motorists should pass wide and slow around horses. horses were on the roads before cars, moron.

Nope. A rural town should expect horses on the road. It's like walking a dog, you need to exercise your horse. For some, horses enjoy the solid road the best.

I mean, sure, you should always respect a horse since they so easily gets spooked, but riding where you were you kind of had it coming

@@MJSolit ..”you had it coming..” does mean you think it’s wrong. And horse riding on roads is perfectly legal in UK: there are rules www.highwaycodeuk.co.uk/rules-about-animals-horse-riders.html

Maybe taking your easily spooked horse on a small busy concrete road is a totally smart idea. Because all drivers are considerate and smart. Because a fast speeding car can get fixed while a horse can lose its life. Oh stupid cars for practically being cars. Shame on them *tsk tsk*

Yeah sure any thing can spook, accidents can happen with any thing, any where, any time. It just so happened that I seemed to bump into some right wally's while out that day LOL It was just a shock that these particular drivers had absolutely no road sense (or manners) what so ever. All they had to do was give a little room and a little consideration to others. Moral of the story is, we all need to be considerate to other people :) Common curtsy is all we need and that's to all of us in general .. doesnt matter if its dogs, kids, horses, cyclists, cars etc Less arguments and more consideration and all will be happy :)

Nether Fel why? Easy.. all the feilds are private! You can't just go galavanting where ever you like ! Also it helps keep horses steady with hard ground under their feet, grass is like a starters pistol! Also it's nice to ride round the roads 😃

Roads are not just for cars. Ever heard of bicycles? Horse riding is recognised in Highway Code: maybe you should refresh your memory. www.highwaycodeuk.co.uk/rules-about-animals-horse-riders.html

Often, you have to ride on a road *to get to a field*. There are decreasing amounts of bridle ways(there are none in some areas) to go through to avoid roads. Cars kill more people, and humans can be just as unpredictable. How many people killed by dangerous driving? How many people killed by drunk driving? Horses can go to 40-48 mph, but they can only trot maximum on a road. Most riders only walk, not trot on busier roads as it is more safe. You seem to be a snowflake! :)

The road is for vehicles..... What do expect? Pretty selfish to travel a road made for vehicle traffic and expect them to understand and somehow know what YOU expect.
