COMPO 54 Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 sec 137 the highways act 1980 obstruction of the highway if a person without lawful authority or excuse, in anyway wilfully obstructs the free passage along a highway he is guilty of an offence this would cover the above if when asked to go single file they failed without reasonable excuse, a reasonable excuse would be a young nervous horse/rider working on the horse shit thing i think section 161-162 highways act may cover it 161-(4) if a person...................allows any filth...or other offensive matter or thing..............to run or flow onto a highway Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mush 204 Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I never drive or ride a horse close to the hedge i stay right out in the road or you get silly twats who don't slow down thinking they can get past on narrow lanes or if its a wide road with oncoming traffic they still try getting past. As soon as i can ill pull over and let them pass as its only manners. I always try and leave plenty of shit on the road next to you mark so it gets all over that nice clean 4x4 of yours, gives you some thing to do cleaning it as you don't work now LOL ;-))))))))))))))))))) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ladyp 12 Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Driving down a narrow but reasonably busy road this morning i had the misfortune to be stuck behind 2 horses with a stuck up female on each....side by side refusing to move meaning a 2 mile road took me near on 15 minutes to reach the end.....normally im happy to slow down,stop or whatever it takes to be polite.....having politely ( but relatively loudly ) asked them to move over or at the least go single file my reply was " why should we theres no law against it "......is there or not does anyone know ?......only because im getting too old for it did i manage to resist some sort of road/horse rage !.....is there any laws with horses and roads ? thought some of you country folk might know,thanks will look it up later for you! i know there is dangerous and inconsiderate cycling! hope there is a similar for inconsiderate horse riding OBSTRUCTION. Obstruction may be caused by persons,animals,vehicles and things. THE HIGHWAY ACT 1835,s78 I WOULD PHONE THE POLICE AND TELL THEM. I WAS A HORSE RIDER ONCE AND THEY SHOULD HAVE MOVED OVER FOR YOU TO PASS.(SHAME ON THEM) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
