Do you need a motorcycle license to drive a scooter in Cali?
My wife was wanting one and I didn't know. In Florida, I drove a Vespa for a gig and as long as I had a valid DL and it was under a certain CC I was cool.
Not sure if it is the same out here since there are M1 and M2 licenses... Is there anything she can buy that she can ride just on a normal DL?

I know that in the past for anything considered a scooter you only needed a M2 but a true motorcycle you needed an M1, which also covers scooters.
Now that being said I remember that about a month ago I was looking on DMV site and I think the whole scooter designation thing might have changed.
And so as far as things she could drive/ride would be a car and in some cities a go-ped thats under 50cc
