Grant cats the same status under the Road Traffic Act 1988 as dogs
Grant cats the same status as dogs and other animals mentioned in the Road Traffic Act 1988. This would mandate the reporting of any accidents involving cats to the police and empower them to take legal action against motorists who neglect to report such incidents
By including cats in the Road Traffic Act, the government would acknowledge their status as valuable family members, ensure greater accountability from drivers, and ultimately promote a more compassionate society that treats all animals with the respect and consideration they deserve.
