California Highway Patrol officers had to give a horseback rider a lesson in the state's driving — and riding — rules.
That's the message California Highway Patrol officers in Merced laid on a horseback rider, who they promptly removed from behind the reins for drunkenly riding the range.
The post noted that California's Vehicle Code 21050 does also apply to people riding animals on the highway, not just riding in vehicles. "In a display of true compassion, Officer Brackett also ensured the safe return of the horse to its origin after the arrest," the post read.
