Sorry for the bad language.
Coming home from a hard nights backshift, with a work mate and almost died.. was going about 55mph though not sure hitting this would do much damage at those speeds.

i still can not beleave how i managed to survive not hitting them.... had to swerve to the center of the road and back to the left :o

Video reuploaded with end of sound cut... hope this is ok.

Christ.. that was close. At that speed hitting a horse I'd imagine would do a fair bit to a car.

Yeah they where full grown aswell, they got out of the farm gate it was unlatched and open we managed to get the horses back into the farm and relatch the gate, we called the police just incase there was more loose on the road and went home, we where tired going home but we where wide awake when we got home ...
 
Blimey ! Had you already moved into the middle of the road because of the all potholes on the side or had you seen something on the approach to the bend ?

Was due to the potholes pal ;)
i drive that road all the time and my low profile tires dont like potholes so i anticipated taking a slight wide route to get through them.. :D
 
To the OP, when you just missed them was that noise the sound of air escaping from your nether regions? :D

Good job you were in the middle of the road to avoid the potholes as not sure you would have missed the one on the left otherwise.

Hop you rang the police?

yes police where involved, had to ring them also as there might have been more horses on the road..
