If you are younger than 18, you can apply with parental consent and a valid driver's license. At age 16, you can apply for a moped license, which allows you to operate a moped that is 50cc or less. A motorcycle permit or license allows you to operate a motorcycle, motorbike, scooter, or moped on public roads.
