| I've seen the result of three bad trailer accidents involving horses...
First was a throughbred stallion being moved in a stock trailer, was about 16' in length, horse was free in it not tied. Somehow he got his leg caught between the slits, and the resulting panic nearly ripped his leg off at the part that was tuck. They had to euthanize him.
Second was a roll over with a bumper pull, large belgain, free inside a two horse inline trailer, loaded on the right stall no other horse in trailer. The trailer flipped at a curve, was drug a few feet. Horse lived, but the trailer was destroyed, horse was hurt, and trapped in the thing for hours.
Third was the worst absolutely the most horrible thing I have ever seen ever in my life involving a horse. The trailer was a beat up older 4 H rusty one, the floor was in terrible condition, loaded up three horses, tied them in, started off. The stable got the call about 10 minutes later, they needed another trailer, I was there at the time and had a older 4 H as well, this one was WW I loved that thing the axle went though (expensive!), anyway, we get to the location on the main road, its terrible, their is blood and chunky crap all over the road and the trailer is off to the side. The floor gave way, sending two of the three through to the road while they were traveling 50 miles an hour, I am sure you can guess the aftermath of that.
