You said, we did!
We have been approached by members of the public letting us know that some drivers have not been passing horses slow enough or leaving enough space.
When passing a horse in a vehicle you need to allow 2 metres clearance. This means that if the horse turns to face towards the car or kicks out, it won't hit the vehicle- keeping the horse, rider and driver safe.
Remember - if you meet a horse rider on the road remember these things:
🔵 Slow down
🔵 Be patient, don’t use your horn or rev your engine
🔵 Drive slowly away.
