Dashcam footage from a taxi showed one of the animals running into the bonnet of a car at a junction in Pimlico, central London. It’s the second incident in three months involving army animals breaking loose in the capital. The Ministry of Defence said all horses were collected and returned to Hyde Park Barracks.

Perhaps the level of EMF radiation has increased to a level where the horses are affected.
Why now?
It never used to happen and especially so frequent.
Why aren't the riders in control of their horses. Grip with your thighs!
Obviously a rogue horsemasters guild person at work here.
You know the country's really falling apart when even the horses are rioting … Again
The horse had insurance
Are they lowering the standards in the cavalry regiments?
Again???
Can't they just hold there horses.
I thought the horses are on summer holiday in Norfolk
i saw that this morning the two horses were galloping loudly about 7.30 in Pimlico riderless. They were going too fast for anybody to take a pic, we were just looking at each other in bemusement.
Oh not again
Not another one!
should be in fields not in urban area. horses are smart they wont try escape for no reason. UK stuck in 1830's
Horses and cars don't mix. They really need to re think this before someone is killed..
My horse was training to be a blacksmith….. he was always making a bolt for the door.
I’m here all week… tell your friends
They look ULEZ compliant to me
“You can’t park that thing here!”
SOMETHING DARK IS HAPPENING TO THE HORSES
And they were neighing "Free Palestine!!" 🇦🇪🇦🇪
?????what is going on?
Getting bad situs with horses of the royal party
"And all the kings horses and all the kingsmen couldn't put the tories roads back together again" 😂😂
Too much of a coincidence to happen so soon after the last fiasco. Military leaders need to be looking at deliberate internal subterfuge…..
Horses were spooked outside the barracks when soldiers were trying to mount, the horse that ran against the car has minor injuries, other horse is fine, luckily they were caught quickly, both riders are not injured..
Again?
This keeps happening. It's ridiculous
It's just aswell that the copper who knocked down the calf was taken off the front lines, otherwise those horse's wouldn't have made it back to the barracks😂
Its disgusting that these horses are kept in London City.They need to be in the countryside and not being made to stand in one place for hrs, plus the poor horses getting petrified and injured.Time to have a rethink.Some horses are just not cut out for this.
Definitely something going wrong with training of horses and riders.
Again? i did say something was afoot the first time this happened
It is not fair for the horses. Standing for hours in one spot. Trotting on concrete and cobbled stones. Riders whose skills are below par. Cars and buses everywhere. Safety aspects are out of balance and calls for a change .
Do we even need urban horse mounted patrols?
Ravens leaving the tower, now the horses… Is it a sign I wonder..
Charlie or the pope , exiting
NCSWIC NOTHING
This happened again???!?
Early retirement 🎉🎉❤❤😂😂😂🫶🙏🛶🛶🛶🚂🥕🥕
Khan’s fault the capital is overcrowded with ubereats/Deliveroo mopeds/bikes. And people in general that have nothing to offer. Horses keep getting spooked.
Even the horses don't wanna join Rishi
These horses are being spooked by something or someone deliberately. 🇬🇧
The commission has concluded that the police horse was in the right and the car driver is guilty of vehicular assault.
-This is parody
Are agency workers looking after these horses now ? surely this can't happen twice in a month
Seems intentional now
Three black horses running loose right before the election. Seems ominous to me.
This never happened when Queen Elizabeth was alive. What going wrong with the discipline in the ranks Poor horse
Well well. That's one way of keeping tourists out of London 😉
Feel sorry for the horses though
Guinness surfers ad
Masons
Even the horses do not like the Parliament
