Do I Need To License My Scooter

    There are mainly two types of scooters: one is a two-stroke scooter with a shape similar to an electric motorcycle, and the other is a single cylinder four stroke fuel powered scooter. The two-stroke scooter uses a relatively simple principle, small size, but high noise, fuel consumption, and emits a blue smoke due to insufficient combustion during driving. The four stroke fuel powered scooter used in a single cylinder four stroke engine doubles the number of lever trips during each engine operation (i.e. four trips), Enhanced the adequacy of gasoline fuel combustion, greatly reducing pollution and noise.
    It must be pointed out that most of the current electric scooter brands belong to the four stroke type, which actually has good fuel efficiency. Four stroke power assisted vehicles are recognized as motor vehicles according to the standard. In the Traffic Law, there are clear provisions for electric power assisted vehicles, which belong to non motorized vehicles. However, there are no clear regulations for fuel powered vehicles.
    National standard for electric scooters
    According to the standard of "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety", fuel powered bicycles should be light motorcycles. A light motorcycle refers to a two or three wheeled vehicle with a maximum speed of no more than 50 kilometers per hour, regardless of the driving method used. If an internal combustion engine is used, a two or three wheeled vehicle with a displacement of no more than 50 milliliters is defined as a light motorcycle, which is managed as a motor vehicle. At present, many fuel powered motorcycles exceed a speed of 50 kilometers per hour, so this type of vehicle should be defined as a light motorcycle and belongs to the category of motor vehicles. Since it belongs to motor vehicles, according to the provisions of the Road Traffic Safety Law, drivers should go to the traffic management department to handle the registration and registration procedures, obtain a driver's license, and drive on the motor vehicle lane of the motor vehicle. Violation of regulations should also be punished as a motor vehicle powered motorcycle.
Do I need a driver's license for a scooter
    According to the "Gasoline Engine Powered Bicycle" standard issued by the National Bureau of Technical Supervision, special bicycles that meet the following conditions are managed as non motor vehicles: those equipped with gasoline engines, with two wheels, and capable of achieving both pedal and motor functions, and should meet the following basic conditions: firstly, the working volume of the cylinder of the power assisted bicycle should not exceed 30ml; The net weight of a power assisted vehicle should not exceed 40kg; The power assisted bicycle should be able to be driven by a human foot pedal when the motor clutch is disengaged; The 30 minute pedal travel distance should not be less than 7km; The maximum speed of the moped should not exceed 20km/h.

    In short, according to the provisions of the Road Traffic Safety Law, motor vehicles can only be driven on the road after registration, and their license plates should be hung. If the power assisted bicycle meets the standards of gasoline powered bicycles, there is no need to apply for registration and driver's license procedures. Otherwise, according to the standards of the Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety, the registration and driver's license procedures shall be managed.
