Motorcycles are cooler than scooters. There's really no debate about that. Still, there's more to life than looking cool, and while you won't look as awesome rolling up to work on a scooter as you would on a motorcycle, scooters have a few advantages of their own that make them convenient and worth feeling a little self-conscious now and then.

Until now, mopeds and scooters haven't been that commonly used in the U.S.; recently, however, they've been gaining popularity in urban areas throughout the country. Thanks to a low engine displacement, mopeds get anywhere from 70 to 125 mpg, and many mopeds with engines under 50 cubic centimeters (cc) don't require a registration, saving you even more money. If you're looking to join the ranks of moped owners, you have plenty to get excited about, but don't let it overshadow your safety. Before you hop on your inaugural ride, make sure to get a crash course in moped safety.

It can all be very confusing. What's really the difference between a moped and a scooter, and why does it matter? You're not the first person to ask. The fact is, there are substantial differences between a scooter and a moped. You would probably be surprised to know that technically motorcycles and scooters have much more in common than mopeds and scooters.

You're riding down the road on your moped, enjoying the freedom of the road and the feel of the wind in your face when all of a sudden your engine starts to sputter. Don't panic; it could just be a dirty air filter.

Being able to see while on an ATV, bike, or scooter is important, especially at night. But the headlights that make it easier for you to see the road (and for others to see you) start becoming hazy over time, resulting in lights that aren't as bright in the darkness or fog. This is especially concerning when the cooler weather comes and the days start getting shorter. With some time and effort, you can restore your headlights to their former glory.
