I wouldn't walk her again without a bitted bridle and a double length lead rein.

How experienced with young horses are you Gibba?

Then I think you need some input from an experienced trainer with you there, or somebody is likely to get hurt.

Never walk anything on the road without a bit in it’s mouth. Walking on the roads is not the place to stop and snack, it’s to get educated. Always put yourself between the horse and the car, so essentially if you’re walking on the left hand side of the road, you walk on the right of the horse.

She is 3 she is going to be worried and react to a lot of things and it's dangerous to be leading her out without a bit, I would get her used to having a bit then think about taking her out for walks, your setting yourself up to fail or worse have an accident or cause one what if she were to get loose?

I think that if you’re not going to be comfortable dealing with that sort of thing, then you shouldn’t put the horse and yourself in the sort of situation that could trigger that. Don’t set yourself, and the horse, up to fail.

I would focus on working with her in environments where it isn’t dangerous for her to buck and rear, and where you can ensure that you handle any of that sort of thing (which is totally normal for a youngster) in a positive and confident manner.

It will be better for her to be unused to traffic than to have a bad experience with it. If you can get an experienced instructor or expert to teach her about these things, then you can ensure she doesn’t put anyone at risk when she’s reacting to new things.

I also wouldn’t be feeding treats unless you’re in an absolutely safe and secure environment. I’d not want my hands off the reins or rope unless everything was calm and secure.
