Horse Crossing and Horses Signs
Horse farms, riding stables and rural homes with horses near the road need drivers to slow down before they reach the pasture. Put the sign on a post at the lane entrance or by the pasture fence, at a height a driver in a car can see.

Where horse crossing and horses signs are used
A boarding barn's driveway that meets a county road at a sharp angle, a trail riding outfitter's staging lot where horses unload, a rural lane where a neighbor's mare grazes near the road, or a horse show grounds' exit onto a two-lane road all need drivers to watch for animals near the shoulder. A barn manager may post one at the exit, and a trail outfitter might hang one on the staging lot's entry post. It warns a driver before a horse comes into view around a bend.
Choosing the size and where to hang it
Beside the lane entrance or the road fence, set it on a post at about eye level for a driver in a car. The 24 by 18 in size reads from farther back, and 12 by 12 in fits a short fence run. Aluminum is the right pick outdoors, and the reflective version helps at dusk or night. Plastic is light and suits a shed wall away from the road. Use holes or zip ties, and check your state and local rules.
Questions about horse crossing and horses signs
Where should a horse crossing sign go?
Place it on a post at the lane entrance and near the pasture fence where horses cross. On a long lane, repeat the sign so drivers see it more than once. For a public road, check your local rules first, since road signs are often a city or county matter.
Which size works for a lane?
The 24 x 18 in landscape size is easiest to read from a moving car. Use 18 x 12 in for a lane sign beside a gate, or 12 x 18 in portrait on a narrow post. The two words, CAUTION and HORSES, are short enough to read at each of these sizes.
What does Please drive slowly add?
It asks drivers to slow down, which is the main job of this sign. If you want to add a farm name or a note such as Stable entrance ahead, type it in the extra line. The live preview shows the change as you type, so you can see how it fits.
Does a sign make drivers slow down?
A sign warns drivers, and it helps most where the road and the lane meet at a clear point. Speed is still the driver's choice, so pair the sign with a visible lane and a lower speed limit where your road authority allows it. Check your state and local rules for any warning signs on public roads.
Can I add my place name on the extra line?
Yes. Type the farm or stable name on the extra line, such as Lower Lane Stables, and the preview shows it below the printed words. Keep the name short so drivers can read it at a glance from the road.
