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.
