I never 'hug the verges' when I hack out, on a normal A road, I ride on my side of the road in the middle of the lane, this makes traffic slow down then I can move over left to allow them to pass. They recently made a road I have to ride along a dual carriageway and on this I keep to the left of left hand lane as there is more room for traffic to pass. My horse is jumpy in traffic and at objects like a bag blown into a hedge, - but I am hoping the more I go out the better she will get. I dont really enjoy the busy roads though, just consider them a necessity in a horses education this day and age..
