Up in the clouds
I completely agree with you PS - to me, that is not a safe reaction, especially from the horse bring up the rear.
Thank you, RTE.
We have very safe, well-mannered horses but always avoid our local road which has big puddles after heavy rain. There are plenty of other routes that we can take. I would expect any-one taking a horse out in order to accustom it to puddles/cars/wet weather to build up gradually in a safe environment to having a car drive too fast through standing water, rather than expecting drivers to know what to do when the horses start jumping about. I would also expect to see more capable riding from riders taking horses out on the road.
