Grant cats the same status under the Road Traffic Act 1988 as dogs
Grant cats the same status under the Road Traffic Act 1988 as dogs and other animals, whereby it becomes law to report any accident to the Police and grant the Police powers to prosecute motorists who fail to report or stop at the scene of an accident.
Cats are considered as family members by many households and are more vulnerable to injury and sadly death when involved in a collision.
Sadly, many motorists will not stop after hitting cats as there is no legal requirement for them to do so. This leads to many households never knowing what has happened to their cats.
We want to ensure cats are afforded the same status as dogs and other animals and end the killing of cats on the roads.
