It depends on where the accident occurred, if the animal was on a public roadway then the owner is responsible for any damage that was done to the vehicle and any injuries to the passengers. If it was on private property, it would more than likely be the fault of the driver of the vehicle or in some situations both parties could be held responsible.
Another answer: Depends on the state. Texas is a "Free Range" state and only the US highways are considered "closed range". So the owner is not liable unless it can be proved that he was knowingly negligent for livestock accidents. For example, it if could be proved that the fence was down, had been down a long time, the owner knew it was and had been down, knew that his horses were getting out, and did nothing to remedy the situation. Only then could he be held responsible. Don't know about other states, but here in Texas, as I said, it is a Free Range state.

When the horse suddenly stops the rider falls forward Explain why?
It is mainly due to inertia of motion (Newton's first law of motion). When the horse is in motion then rider also remains in motion along with the horse. But when the horse suddenly stops, the lower part of the rider comes in the rest along with the horse but his upper part remains in the motion. This is why, he falls forward.
