Terrifying footage shows 'reckless' driver who 'could have killed' horse rider on country road

A driver has been slammed after they were caught on video driving dangerously close to a horse rider at high speed.
Rider Aimee Hussey posted the footage from her helmet cam after the motorist, travelling well over the 40mph speed limit in a red Nissan, past just inches away from her and 20-year-old mount Jak.

"As a horse rider I know how quickly horses can get spooked and best believe it they jump sideways, forwards and backwards before you have time to step on your brakes!
"It only adds a few seconds onto your journey to be courteous so please slow down just a little!"
Today, she told the Manchester Evening News: "What that driver doesn't realise is that his or her recklessness could kill them as well as us.

Aimee has been riding horses since she was five years old and has show jumped with Jak until he 'retired'.
"Now I just hack him around," she said. "Which is lovely for us. When I first bought he was quite nervous, but I've trained him myself so thankfully he's usually
