What do you call the Yellow and Black stripes on the road?


A kid walked past the yellow and black stripes on the road and asked his dad:

Kid: "Dad, what do you call these yellow and black stripes on the road?"

Dad: "Wow! Good question there, I know that they are meant to warn drivers of the hump/hazard but never thought of its name. So, what do you think it's called?"

Kid: "Hmmmm ....The black and white striped path is known as the Zebra crossing, so the yellow and black striped path is known as the grrrrrraaaaooooo .... TIGER Crossing!"

Well, is it really called the Tiger Crossing?
I can't really find the answer in the LTA and One.Motoring websites ... but Tiger Crossing really exists in the U.K., take a look at this site: http://www.camcycle.org.uk/newsletters/71/article12.html
