Well ... the definitions are very fuzzy (this is just so that you
are aware that there is potential for conflict): mopeds* are in
general just low displacement motorcycles, historically with pedals
, but that is typically no longer a legal requirement. For example
there are scooters that fall in this class. Mofas on the other hand,
where the class exists, typically have a requirement for pedals
(adding pedelecs in to the mix just makes things more complicated so
leaving that away for now). <br>
<br>
Obviously a moped without pedals is fairly dead when the motor isn't
running :-)<br>

* just to confuse things in Germany it is colloquially quite common
to refer to any motorcycle as "moped" (even my 1300cc beemer)<br>

I've changed the relevant tags to moped=no. Any opinion
on if mopeds would be included in "motor vehicles"? I
don't think I've ever seen a mofa in the states (I find
people on Vespas in the states already fairly brave) but
what about pedelecs and similar?</div>

<div>A moped would qualify as both a motor vehicle and a
bicycle, which it is (and whether or not it can use
bicycle lanes and cycleways) is determined by whether or
not the motor is running. </div>
