I work for Derbyshire highways, with close conections to the police. Yesterday I answer the police emergency phone, to be asked if I could sen ou sub-contractor out to a location in Heath, Derbyshire.
I have to ask what it is that has happen, well I wish I'd never answered the phone (theres 3 of us in the office) Police wanted us to sort out the clear up of blood and body tissue from the highway, a car had hit a horse and rider. She then said the horse will still be here as it is dead!!
All day all I could think was, poor horse, poor rider, poor owner. I didn't even know if the riader was..... alive.
Well after giving my pony a really big hug, and telling my OH the story I looked on FB just to see what all my friends have been up to. One of them had put that they were starting a petition as her friends horse got killed by a speeding car!!! Turns out is was the same hosre and rider that the police rang about, my poor friend had to go and untack her friends dead horse and help both rider and her sister back to yard, by leading the second horse.
I can not even begin to think how they all must of felt, the inpact ripped the roof of the car. Rider is ok as in scratches and bruises, but I'm sure she's not doing well with loosing her horse.
I don't know the rider from Adam, but if she comes on here and reads this, then I am really sorry for your loss, and couldn't stop think about the accident. I hope you and your sister, recove well and loads of ((((hugs))))
