Now Viewing: scooterTag type: General A small 2 to 3-wheeled motor_vehicle, somehow similar to a motorcycle, but with smaller wheels and a step-through frame and a platform for the operator's feet. Its wheels are smaller than a regular motorcycle's. A popular example is the Vespa. Not to be confused with mopeds. Mopeds have wheels similar in size to a motorcycle's, they tend to have bicycle-like pedals for propulsion, and are narrower than scooters. [1] Rule of thumb: Does it resemble a Vespa? If the answer is yes, then it's probably a scooter. Does it resemble a sturdy women's bicycle with an engine? If the answer is yes, then it's probably a moped. Typical moped: post #607548. Tagging Note: As this tag implicates the motor_vehicle tag, do not use this tag for non-motorized scooters. For non-motorized scooters, use the kick_scooter tag instead.
