RC: Re: RC:slant load vs straight load

["Nancy Mitts" <mitts_n@hotmail.com>]

As long as the dividers are secure there really wouldn't be much if any 
difference. There are a couple problems with loose horses in trailers. When 
horses ride quietly there might not be a problem. If they got to moving 
around to much at the wrong time it could interfere with the control of the 
vehicle.
In a wreck you'd have 1000 lb loose missles flying the entire open 
length.(Unless there were enough horses to prevent a lot of movement.)
