Rules about animals•Rule 58
Safely Herding Animals on Roads
Animals being herded. These should be kept under control at all times. You should, if possible, send another person along the road in front to warn other road users, especially at a bend or the brow of a hill. It is safer not to move animals after dark, but if you do, then wear reflective clothing and ensure that lights are carried (white at the front and red at the rear of the herd).
💡Example
When herding animals on the road, keep them under control and send someone ahead to warn others, especially near bends or hills. For instance, if you're moving sheep along a country lane during the day, have a helper walk ahead to alert drivers, and avoid herding at night, but if necessary, wear reflective gear and carry proper lights.
