People had to use horses to get around before because back about 100 years ago there wasn't any cars and because you can ride horses far distances people decided they were suitable as a form of transport and rode those instead of driving cars. And if you read something like half broke horses by jeannette walls you will find that the more cars came out the less and less horses were used.

Are tunnels bendy so that horses will not bolt at the sight of light?
No. If this was so all tunnels built from the Roman times to Victorian times would be bendy as there was no other means of transport then. Making a bend in a tunnel is costly and is only done when there is an obstruction. Horses do not bolt towards something they fear, only away from from it, and only if they are suddenly frightened. If they had got as far as being in a tunnel they would not be suddenly frightened of it. Horses are not afraid of the light at the end of a tunnel.
