No they don't. As I used to tell my children when we were dairy farming, a cow kicking as a rule is trying to push you away because of an injured teat or something, a horse is trying to kill you. A person must respect the back end and the amount of reach they have and if your going to be back there you want to be very close to them not 3/4 feet away which some don't get either.

I was milking one afternoon and looked out the side window to see my quarter horse standing funny. Upon further examination I see my 5 year old daughter hanging onto one of his rear legs as he is kind of shaking his leg trying to get her off. Damn near had a heart attack needless to say. That horse was one of a kind though. Caught the same kid holding onto his tail while he walked along dragging her through the snow. Smokey was truly something else.
