Gardaí have issued advice on four things motorists should be aware of when they see horseback riders on our roads.
These include the followings:
1. Slow down to at least 15km/h
2. Don't sound your horn and be patient
3. Pass the horse and rider when safe to do so and give two metres away if possible
4. Drive slowly away from the horse and rider.
