You are not wearing a helmet? I will only use the bike around my subdivision (a big one) and I dont have a helmet. There is also no bike zone in my sub so is it also okay to ride my bike on the sidewalk?
Answer
And I suppose all the streets & sidewalks in your neighborhood are lined with marshmallows in case you do fall. Right? I got news for ya...a full 45% of all bicycle accidents are "Solo Falls"! No one else or nothing else involved. See link...

Get a good, well ventilated helmet & a helmet mirror. And ride on the STREETS! Sidewalks are for pedestrians. Streets are for vehicles. Bicycles are vehicles - by law!

What are the laws in California of using a Scooter of 108cc engine?
SolidSnake
I want to buy a 2010 Honda Elite 110 which has a 108cc engine.
I am wondering what are the laws of owning and riding that scooter.
Also additional: Do you need to buy insurance, and pay another fees?
Answer
See link below.
"A motor-driven cycle is a motorcycle whose motor displaces less than 150 cubic centimeters."
"Motorcycles, Motor-Driven Cycles, Motorized Bicycles/Mopeds (Section 406(a) VC ) - A helmet meeting Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 218, self-certified by the manufacturer and displaying a 'DOT' emblem must be worn by all riders of motocycles, motor-driven cycles, and motorized bicycles/mopeds."
"Motorcycle, motor-driven cycle, motorized bicycle/moped (Section 406(a) VC)
Must obtain an M-1 or M-2 endorsement on a driver's license.
M-1 allows the driver to operate a motorcycle, motor-driven cycle and moped
M-2 allows for operation of a moped or motorized bicycle only.
To obtain an M-1 or M-2 endorsement, the driver must:
Pass the appropriate written exam
Pass riding skills test (DMV will accept certificate of competence from an approved novice motorcyclist training program instead of skills test, such as the California Motorcyclist Safety Program).
If the individual is under 21 years of age, mandatory successful completion of a Basic Rider education course approved by the CHP is required, such as the Basic Rider course available through the California Motorcyclist Safety Program."
I am certain you will need insurance.
Good Luck
