Unless your in Amish Country the general answer to that is NO. Most highways do not allow vehicles unable to keep to a certain speed or pedestrians, and this would include horses. So unless your horse is IN a horse trailer and going at highway speeds, no.

There are different types of highways. From a small 2 lane county road in a rural setting to a 6 lane freeway. In most smaller towns it is usually ok to ride on a county road or highway providing there is plenty of shoulder room and the traffic is light. The best way to know for sure would be to contact local police. They should be able to tell you which roads are safe for you and your horse. Note:Don't ride on any road or around traffic unless your horse is 'bombproof' and always remember to wear protective head gear and safe boots or riding shoes.

YES IT IS VERY ILLEGAL TO KILL HORSES. THE UNITED STATES HAS MANY LAWS FOR HUNTERS SO THEY CAN NOT KILL THEM.
