There were four of us out with horses today. Amongst us was me leading a youngster in hand and an 8 year old boy on a lead rein. We'd only just left the yard when we heard someone sounding their horn. Turned around and it was a landrover discoverey speeding up behind us. As she drove past she did it again and again, and sped up.
The speeding is one thing. Road users shouldn't do it but we've all encountered some morons with no road sense not think to slow down. But she purposely sped up. And to sound your horn as you pass horses is just unbelievable, especially when there are children there. Fortunately the two mares were being chilled and she didn't spook the youngsters. But had she scared them I dread to think what would have happened as we were also crossing over a flyover to a main road and someone could have ended up being thrown over.
I made a mental note of the registration number. If this was reported is this something the police would take seriously?
