Not the law in BC, where this happened e scooters are also not legal to be ridden on roads or sidewalks.
Honestly pretty sure it isn't the law in Germany either. They have to get their cars certified as street legal, which wouldn't make any sense at all if they could just use a toy car instead. Why not say your car that has broken lights is actually a toy, and thus legal, if you could evade certification that way? Doesn't make sense.
Well it's also a fifth of the scale. I would say if it's purchased for a child to play with it shouldn't have to be registered.
No obviously. But any vehicle you use to participate in traffic with has to be certified, so that it's safe enough for both you and others according to certain norms. So you couldn't drive a child's toy, which can't be certified this way, on a public road. You can of course still use it elsewhere and doing so doesn't require certification.
