What is the law in Kentucky to drive a moped?

Answer 1

According to the Department for Motor Vehicles website (http://www.dmv.org/ky-Kentucky/other-types.php)... In the state of Kentucky, a moped is defined as a vehicle that is a motorized bicycle with an automatic transmission, an engine less than 50 ccs, and the capability to rev up to a speed of no more than 30 miles per hour. You don't need a moped license if you plan to operate the vehicle on private property only; however, if you plan to ride on streets or highways you'll need to obtain a Kentucky moped license and register the moped. You must be at least 16 years old with a valid driver's permit to apply for your moped license. If you're under 18, you'll need your parent or guardian to sign for you. If you already have a driver's or motorcycle license, it will suffice. You won't need a moped license, too. Apply for your moped license at your local County Clerk's office. The application process for a Kentucky moped license is much like that of a driver's permit. You'll complete a driver license application as well as take the written and vision exams. If you successfully pass your exams, the clerk will issue you a KY moped license. You can keep it until you obtain a motorcycle or driver's license, at which point you'll need to submit your moped license to the County Clerk's office. Even with a moped license or regular driver's license, a moped is not allowed on any public highways that have a minimum speed limit above 30 mph.
