Scooters

The state of Maryland, never a state to miss the opportunity to tax the peasants, passed a law that requires that mopeds and motor scooters be registered and display a sticker. In addition, you must have a "Moped operator's permit"

After a quick Google search, I found out that rules vary widely around the country.

The great state of Texas requires a special license and a tag be purchased.

In South Carolina, registration is not required, but a special endorsement on your license is required.

All of this being said, states respect other states DMV requirements. But only after stopping you will a LEO know that you are from NC and let you off. Plus, many private CGs don't allow you to ride them on their properties. Might not be as good of idea as you thought.

ON EDIT: As a side note, DMV.org is a pretty useful website to find out rules and regs for all states on a variety of motor vehicle issues.

I believe that Maryland just started requiring them to be registered/tagged, under 30 cc, etc.

We have one and it is a tad larger than 50cc.
We put it on a Versa Hauler and go.
I would look into a larger one and go on and get a license and such.
The cost is miniature. The fun is extreme!

Me personally. I think they should be banned every where the speed limit is over 15 MPH. Nothing but a road hazard, and in truth, most of their riders are only on them due to losing license, because of drunk driving convictions. But you know, a drunk on a Likker Cickle is almost as bad as a drunk in a car. And they tend to ride in the middle of the road. Not too smart in a 55 MPH speed zone. Of course, If they had been smart. they wouldn't have lost their license.

There have been several killed in our area because of riding in the middle of the road. One not far from my house. Fella came around a curve, and there it was right in the middle. He had no time to stop.

Not looking to take it to OL. You can have them there, but not at the site. Have to leave it in the parking lot up front.

You are not supposed to ride them in a 55 mph zone. 35 mph zone or less.

While there are a bunch of the liquor cycles, many people ride them around in metro areas. It's a cheap and simple thing to take behind a motorhome that you could use in areas that are more populated.

If you ride one outside of your own state, I can guarantee that at least one state will require it to be registered and licensed if driven on any public street and may require all riders to wear a helmet. At the very least, you'll be pulled over every time a P.O. sees you, get a ticket and possibly be made to park it.
Besides that, riding one outside of a residential subdivision at that speed will give you an excellent chance of becoming somebody's hood ornament. Better to register, license and wear a helmet and not need it, than the other way around.

Here in NC and other surrounding states they are not required to be licensed. Not sure if that means you can't license them or not. Helmets are required.
