<\/a>I just heard the police minister talking about how rarely a real \u2018accident\u2019 happens and that most are caused by preventable actions like drink driving, speeding and fatigue<\/p>\n

Many horse accidents can also be prevented. Accidents can be caused by unsafe handling and riding, mismatch of horse and rider\/handler, inexperienced\/ untrained instructors or complete lack of supervision by a competent person<\/p>\n

So . . . when you are about to do something with your horse, or give an instruction to some-one else about a horse . . . just take a moment to think about what could possibly go wrong and what you could do to make it safer<\/p>\n

That way, you can prevent those \u2018accidents\u2019 happening<\/p>\n

Happy (and safe) Riding,<\/p>\n
