Horse killed on motorway

I would make two general coments one is how important mainternance is esp tyres for instance old tyres can blow out without warning, so if they are older than about 5 years it would be a very good idea to renew them... also LOW PRESSURE is the number one cause of blowouts as soft tyres will overheat and then fail!!!!, IMHO its madness that trailers dont need an anuall MOT...
The other thing is unsuitable towing vehicles Hardly a day goes by without some wally posting a question about whats the smallest tow car they can get away with!! the lighter the tow vehicle the more likely you will lose control in a situation like an emergency stop or having to swerve ...
 
i'm really sad that it is my first time back on the forum in a while and this is the first story i read. My depest sympathy goes out to the owners, i can't imagine what they are going through.
just out of interest though, does anyone know what sort of trailer was being towed???? was it an older one or an ifor??? Just curious as H+h news said it almost all seemed to break apart at the seems so i was just curious as to the age.

RIP horsey xxx
