It’s political correctness gone MAD as the words ‘cat’s eyes’ are replaced by ‘road studs’ by council


What is the world coming to?

You can’t even say the words “cat’s eyes” in the context of road safety without some idiot thinking they’re made out of real cat’s eyes.

Which they are. [This is a joke, they’ve used sheep for years as a far cheaper alternative]

But now, those pencil-necked desk-jockeys at Suffolk County Council have succumbed to the forces of idiocy and made the switch to ‘road studs’.

Eastern Daily Press: Suffolk County Council to stop using the words ‘cat’s eyes’ over animal cruelty confusion fears that probably only exists in their own minds

And here’s what they’re replacing the signs with, which is all shades of wrong.

And I’ll show you why.

This is a set of cat’s eyes, familiar to drivers all over the country as cat’s eyes:

And this is a road stud, known to drivers all over the country as “Stop posing and get on with your work”.

Pretty different, huh?

Who – we ask – apart from the most triggered broflake in the word – want to see this kind of thing removed from our roads?

Suffolk County Council do, that’s who. And that makes them the worst people in the world, even worse than Peter Andre fans.

And it’s not as if anybody has ever mixed up cat’s eyes on roads, and cat’s eyes that are a vital part of actual cats?

OK, perhaps once or twice, and it’s worth asking what kind of monster studies at the University of Bristol Faculty of Vetinary Sciences if that’s the kind of thing they get up to.

Stop it, you curs. Stop it at once.
