Hold drivers accountable for killing cats through speeding or negligence

Background

Require drivers to stop and report collisions with cats. Update the law so cats are treated like dogs under road traffic rules, and introduce penalties for failing to stop or report. This would help owners get answers and ensure accountability.

Additional details

Cats are currently excluded from laws requiring drivers to stop after collisions. This leaves owners without answers and allows drivers to avoid responsibility. Many incidents involve speeding or careless driving but go uninvestigated. Changing the law would close this gap, improve accountability and encourage safer driving in residential areas, helping prevent avoidable deaths.
