Yes, you can ride your horse on the road , but if you haven't taken your horse on the road before it is better to walk them or lead them along a quieter road.

Yes you can ride them on the road but it is better to walk and never cante Ron the road as it hurts there hoofs and it can damage them. you always have to be alert of cars when riding on the roads. It is better to ride with someone on the roads.
In most areas you can ride on the road so long as you are wearing appropriate safety gear including a helmet, boots, and a safety vest and possibly something reflective. Typically you'll want to stay out of traffic and on the sidewalks if able. If you must be on the road, insure that motorists see you well before you move in any direction. It's also wise to check with your local laws to see if it's legal to ride in the streets.
Yes you can
yes, but no faster than trot and learn to use your arms as indicators to where you are going. I would also ensure that the horse is "road safe" before you ride it. This means that it has been conditioned to road traffic and will not spook and put you in a dangerous position.

Typically it is best to wait until you are about 13 or 14 years of age if you will be driving alone, however so long as there is an adult or more experienced driver or horse person with you, you should be able to drive a horse on the road or roadside at almost any age.

This would depend on where you live and the local traffic laws. I would suggest contacting the local Traffic or Auto authorities in your area and asking. However so long as you follow the traffic laws and have complete control of your horse any age from 13 and up should be OK for short rides out on a main road.

Yes, in most areas it is okay by law to ride along the road, however you should look into local laws to see if the county or city you live in has laws regarding this.If you are allowed, then make sure you wear reflective, high- visibility gear regardless of the time of day, go with the flow of traffic and be prepared for drivers to swerve, honk or even throw things at you and your horse. It is also of utmost importance to ensure your horse is road safe and will not spook or become excited in traffic.

Remember to follow the rules of the road and enjoy your riding time.

At what age is a horse to old to work?

Not knowing if you mean the age of the horse or the riders age. Both will be answered here. A rider can ride until physically unable to do so, there is no age limit. As long as a horse is healthy and physically able to bare weight, it can be ridden. Well, you don't really have to stop at a certain age. But maybe when your old and can barely walk. But I say if the horse is fine, you can ride. So when ever you feel like stopping is the age.

To find the age of a horse in horse years you multiply the horse's age in human years by 3. For example, if you have a horse that is 6 in human years it would be 18 in horse years. You can find a horse's age in horse years no matter what age the horse is in human years. Glad to help!
