In Florida is it legal to have 3 people on a moped?

Question

I'm not sure exactly if it's considered a moped, I think it's 50 cc though...but it has TWO seats, but 3 people fit comfortably on there...would police say anything to us?

Answer 1

yes it is illegal in any us state to have 3 people on any kind of moped motorcycle two wheel driven bike

Answer 2

It probably isn't legal, and it sure is stupid.  The scooter was never designed to carry that much weight.  For something that small, stick to just one person on it.

Answer 3

It is, Believe it or not, if its 50cc or less and/or does not require a motorcycle license, it is illegal to have any passengers in most states

Answer 4

It's illegal, I would guess.  If not, it should be.

Answer 5

Pretty sure a 50 cc such as Honda or Yamaha is considered a minibike and they do require a license to ride them on public streets.  A moped is designed for one rider (two at most), a minibike can carry a passenger legally, but three is enough to get you pulled over and cited for careless and unsafe operation of a motor vehicle.  Moped motors are tiny little things and risky for passengers.

Answer 6

h**l yes its illegal!
