Moped = motorized bicycle.
Motor-driven cycle = Vespa-style vehicle.
Motorized scooter = go-ped style device.
Motorized scooter (go-ped) is NOT a motor vehicle under California law.
Motorcycles include freeway-legal scooters.
A year ago you could ride a go-ped (motorized scooter) with just a class C license. IDK, but IIRC, you need a Class M2 license nowadays. Even if it is not needed, it is the easiest thing to get.
