Is it legal for a 12 year old to drive 49cc gas mini bike in nova scotia?

It is not legal for a 12-year-old to drive a 49cc gas mini bike in Nova Scotia. The minimum age to operate a motorized vehicle on public roads in Nova Scotia is 16 years old, and only certain vehicles are permitted for use by those aged 16 or 17. Mini-bikes are not on this list. Additionally, the minimum age for operating an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) or off-highway vehicle (ORV) in Nova Scotia is 16. Mini-bikes are considered ATVs or ORVs and therefore cannot be operated by a 12-year-old.
