A group of horse riders comes towards you. What should you do if the leading rider's horse becomes nervous of your presence?


Explanation

"If any animal you pass on the road becomes unsettled, you should brake gently and come to a stop. A nervous animal is unpredictable, so you should wait until it has settled or passed by. Other road users behind you may have a limited view of the hazard, so use your mirrors and give clear signals if necessary."
