quote:

A Prince George man was pulled over by police after driving a child-size pink toy Barbie Jeep along one of the main roads in the north-central B.C. city on Sept. 5.

Photos captured by several witnesses show Kasper Lincoln wearing aviator sunglasses and cruising down 15th Avenue near Nicholson Street — one of the main thoroughfares.




quote:

Speaking to CBC News, Lincoln said he was getting ready to go get a slurpee with a friend but "got lazy" and decided to borrow his roommate's child's tiny car to get around, as his friend walked along beside him.

"I never drove it before," he said while laughing.




quote:

RCMP say they pulled Lincoln over for a traffic stop and, in the course of talking to him, found he had a suspended licence and believed he was inebriated, later verified by two breath analysis tests, which Lincoln also confirmed to CBC News.





Lincoln is embracing his fame after being arrested driving a toy pink Barbie Jeep in Prince George, B.C., saying he's enjoying the memes being sent to him by friends and family. He also doesn't blame police for doing their job in pulling him over and admits he was over the legal limit for alcohol, which is why he was taken in.

So he wasn't arrested for driving the toy jeep as the OP suggests. Words matter.

Why is this an arrestable offense?

That suspended license didn't help either, I imagine.

Canada laws are different

quote:

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.

RCMP media relations officer Staff Sgt. Kris Clark said driving an uninsured vehicle is sufficient grounds to make an arrest, especially when combined with other possible violations including impairment.


Kyla Lee, a Vancouver-based lawyer specializing in driving offences agreed with police, saying it is well-established that toy vehicles are not allowed on the road.

"You are required to have a driver's licence in British Columbia if you're operating any motorized vehicle on the roadway," she said. "That includes Barbie cars, toy cars, electric skateboards — anything like that. It is required to have a licence and insurance."

quote:

She said while some cities are seeking to adapt the rules given the increased popularity of electric scooters and e-bikes, when it comes to a Barbie Jeep the law is cut and dry: "Toy cars constitute motor vehicles if they are powered by some sort of an engine."

If he would’ve said he identifies as a little girl, Canada would’ve made him a national hero.

Is it even possible to insure a Barbie car?

Seems a lawyer would have a field day with this.
