[RC] hauling postions - Dot Wiggins

When horses are hauled in large stock trucks, untied,  they will often ride
diagonally, facing forward or backward, by choice.  Interestingly, the
diagonal is usually driver's front side to passengers rear side.  If there
are several they often ride head to tail, each facing opposite directions.

When I used to haul with straight loads the horses didn't handle the trip as
well as in the slant loads, even with frequent stops to unload.
