- DonaldFisk 8y agoIn the UK, a "scooter" can be either a kick scooter like the one shown in the article or here: https://www.microkickboard.com/childrens-scooters https://www.microkickboard.com/childrens-scooters , or a motor scooter, like the ones shown here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scooter_(motorcycle) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scooter_(motorcycle) , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mod_(subculture) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mod_(subculture) This is a moped: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moped https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moped . It has bicycle pedals and a motor. You don't see them much nowadays. There have recently been many reports of "moped crime": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moped_crime_in_London https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moped_crime_in_London but this seems to be done on motor scooters rather than mopeds: https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/terrifying-moment-west-end-motorbike-raiders-wielding-hammer-and-crowbar-target-pedestrians-a3531461.html https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/terrifying-moment-west...
