A: In many places, including most states in the US, a 12-year-old operating a 125cc motorcycle on public roads might be in violation of laws regulating the age and licensing requirements for operating motor vehicles. This could result in charges related to underage driving without a valid license or permit. The charges could potentially be directed at both the underage driver and their parents or legal guardians if they allowed or facilitated the underage driving.
