Animal rights advocates have said the emergence of video footage showing a sulky race that cut off four lanes of a Dublin motorway has renewed focus on the need for safe, off-road and regulated facilities.
The Irish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said driving horses on hard road surfaces can cause serious injuries. Collisions with vehicles have also resulted in the death of animals in the past, it said. As well as calling for a policy of zero tolerance by gardaí, he said it was “time that sulkies were taken off the road by a system of licensing and registration and the provision of a safe off-road alternative” reopening an ongoing debate. said “anyone reasonable seeing that video would be horrified” and that the activity could not be supported.
We wouldn't even be talking about this if the most basic equine care and facilities laws were enforced.
