The arrest report was entered into a Barbie computer.

(I actually bought one of those for my niece back in the day).
Prince George BC is a fairly large city about the size of Yakima WA or Bend OR to give some context, so how would you expect police there to react to some doofus out in mid-day traffic on a main thoroughfare? It poses a danger in particular to the doofus but also to any random motorist who suddenly finds this guy partially blocking their lane in what is often two lanes of traffic with a lot of lane changing and visual distractions of an urban environment.
Also it sends a very bad message to kids, here’s an adult wheeling around on a busy street in a kid’s pretend car. Next thing will be a kid imitating that with deadly consequences.
So yes I would support arresting him and making the point that the roads are not playgrounds for self-indulgent morons. On a quiet residential street it could be good for a laff but not on a busy road like that one apparently.
