I have seen accidents happen when a person was just hacking around (horses can spook for ANY reason).#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#EatMyDust wrote:#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#If its basic work, no jumping, no running, no barrels, then I wont wear mine 1% of the time also. But when I know Im going to be doing serious work, like training, running, or jumping then that helmet is right up on my head.
#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Yup, here is the text of Ontario's #ed_op#A href="http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/DBLaws/Statutes/English/01h04_e.htm"#ed_cl#Horse Riding Safety Act#ed_op#/A#ed_cl#. Although it states that anyone under 18 must wear a helmet while on a horse, not a pony. Guess this is all for those carny pony ride operators. Huh, anyone remember the big hullabaloo a couple years ago when a kid fell off a Shetland at Centre Island?#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#Mystic wrote:#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#As for the under 18s not wearing helmets at shows, the show organizers are really setting themselves up for trouble should something happen. As far as I know it is now illegal for anyone anywhere under the age of 18 to be mounted without a helmet with harness.
#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Well, once again, to reiterate what was said in an earlier post this week, if you ask a question, DON'T be surprised when you get answers that differ from what you were HOPING to hear. #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Honestly...#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#EatMyDust wrote:#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#OK OK OK!
