Scooters
legally are
motorcycles
Motorcycle license
required of owners
By MIKE SULLIVAN
Reporter
Texas A&M students who own
scooters often aren’t aware that their
vehicles are considered to be motor
cycles in the eyes of the law, said Joe
Fisher, owner of University Cycles.
Any two-wheeled vehicle powered
by an engine larger than 50 cubic
centimeters and able to attain speeds
greater than 30 mph is considered a
motorcycle.
Fisher said students may think
their scooters are mopeds, but
mopeds differ from scooters in
power and appearance.
Mopeds nave engines smaller
than 50cc’s and tend to look like bi
cycles with motors.
Scooters typically have engines
larger than 50cc’s, don’t look any
thing like bicycles and require a mo
torcycle license to be legally oper
ated.
“You can’t fly airplanes,” Fisher
said, “and you can’t drive motorcy
cles with a car license.”
He said students often think an
operator’s license and insurance are
all they legally need to drive their
scooters.
To qualify for a moped license an
applicant must pass only a written
test.
Motorcycle licenses require both a
written examination and a driving
test.
Fisher said neither license is diffi
cult to obtain but the penalty for not
having one can be a ticket.
Some students don’t understand
that their car insurance doesn’t
cover their two-wheeled vehicles,
Fisher said.

Liability insurance is the most ba
sic coverage for any type of motor
vehicle, and for motorcycles and
mopeds it costs about $50 per year.
Without liability insurance, a
driver involved in an accident with
another person could be sued di
rectly by the other party.
Mopeds and motorcycles are be
coming more popular each year,
Fisher said. University Police Maj.
Linda Lively said 1,900 motorcycle
parking permits were issued this
year.
With an increase in motorcycles
and mopeds comes an increase in
the potential for motor vehicle/pe
destrian accidents.
At A&M, about one accident in
volving motorcycles or mopeds oc
curs each week. University Police
Chief Elmer Schneider said 17 inju
ries have resulted from accidents
this year.
Fortunately, Schneider said, most
of the injuries wern’t serious because
they occurred at low speeds.
Lively said part of the problem is
students who illegally ride their
mopeds, and occasionally motorcy
cles, through campus. She said stu
dents have been allowed to park
their mopeds in bicycle racks on
campus, but they are supposed to
walk or peddle their mopeds to the
racks in the inner campus area.
“We gave them some latitude, but
it didn’t work,” Lively said.
She said the regulation will be
changed next year. Then mopeds,
like scooters, will be considered mo
torcycles and won’t be allowed to be
g arked in bike racks but will have to
e parked in the areas designated
for motorcycles.
Fisher said most motorcycle and
moped accidents could be avoided if
drivers would learn to drive defensi
vely and be aware of their environ
ments.
“Using the superior brakes and
agility (of motorcycles and mopeds)
a driver can easily avoid an acci
dent,” Fisher said.
He said many drivers listen to a
personal stereo headset while they
drive, insulating their senses from
the environment and making them
selves extremely vulnerable.
Motorcycle and moped drivers
must be especially aware of their sur
roundings because many times auto
mobile drivers don’t give them the

same consideration they give other
cars, he said.
Fisher said about 90 percent of
the wrecked motorcycles that come
to his shop for repair were wrecked
by someone other than the owner.
“A guy who wouldn’t think of
loaning you his car, his stereo, his
girlfriend or his motorcycle, will
loan you his scooter in a flash,”
Fisher said.
Most people think riding a moped
or scooter is just like riding a bicycle

with a motor and assumediai

He said people whoonlyoff 1
