And don't you need a helmet and do you need a separate test /licence in the USA?
In the UK any one who got their driving licence after 2001 must pass the CBT before they can ride a scoter and that's limited to 50cc
- iheartmemcache 9y agoThis will vary from state to state, but in MA anyone who holds a class D (i.e. standard consumer vehicle) license is also allowed to ride any moped that's 49cc or below. I think there's now a yearly registration fee[1] that the owner must pay. So, for example, if I have a moped in good standing with the state, anyone with a valid drivers license is allowed to borrow it and legally ride it[2]. ===== [1] I want to say I paid something like ~30 USD, but this was ~10 years ago. Unlike a standard vehicle, however, there is no inspection check pre-requisite for safety nor emissions. I think the fee is purely for tags. Helmets are definitely a requirement though. [2] AFAIK there are no additional insurance requirements though. There weren't any ~10 year ago when I one, but I can't remember if that's because my comprehensive car insurance did double-duty in the event were I to, say, hit a pedestrian in a crosswalk and they were to sustain damage.
