DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations state that, as a general rule, a passenger on a moped or motorcycle must be over 12 years old. They must ride sitting astride, with their feet on the side footrests, and wearing an approved helmet. There is an exception for children over 7 years old, but only if the driver is the parent, legal guardian, or an authorized person. Therefore, the standard correct answer is 12 years old.
