    But according to police, driving an unlicensed motorized vehicle — even one that’s made for a child — on a road meant for full-sized cars is against the law.

    You gotta be f’ing kidding me. No exceptions exist for engine power or size? Are they arresting all the 5 year olds driving in the street?

      Are e-bikes and scooters not legal? Those have electric motors that are likely more powerful than that.

      Seems to me a stern “go home, you knucklehead” would be the appropriate response.

    Lincoln said of the arresting officer. “He was filling out all of this paperwork, saying ‘This is my first time!’”

    the poor police officer had to start his job with this case

    On another post somewhere, someone said “It shouldn’t be a crime if it’s objectively hilarious”.

    I think that applies here.

    If its on the road in BC, it needs to be licensed with ICBC, unless you’re a recent transplant from elsewhere. Exceptions exist for e-scooters and ebikes, but they also aren’t technically allowed on open road.

    ICBC’s base insurance looks expensive, but it delivers better base insurance than most other places extended insurance.

    He wasn’t driving an American mega vehicle so he was removed from the road for his “safety”.

    Edit: oh shit I dropped this /s
