In order to operate a moped, you must have a driver license and register the moped, there are some exceptions which are listed in a table on the website
Thanks. One more question, are there any special requirements to operate a moped here in New York?
They are exactly the same as motorcycles. Having a driver license is a MUST and you have to register your moped in order to drive it. There are a few exceptions to these requirements that you can see in the Document Guide section B
Could you give me a summary of what I need to bring to the DMV to register a moped?
