Protect Cats: Make Reporting Cat Accidents a Legal Requirement
I want cats to have the same protections as dogs, under section 170 of the road traffic act 1988 - so that it is the law to report any accident involving a cat.
Cats are beloved family members, and we think it is unjust that drivers can hit a cat without any obligation to report it. Like dogs, we think cats deserve the same protections under the law. We think adding cats to Section 170 of the Road Traffic Act would promote accountability and encourage more cautious driving in areas where cats roam. We believe this change could lead to greater road safety, reducing reckless driving and showing that the welfare of all pets, including cats, truly matters.
