Correct answer

  • CNo.No.
Explanation

According to the definitions in the Traffic Law, a motor vehicle is one that has an engine to move it, but mopeds, trams and vehicles for people with reduced mobility are expressly excluded from this category. That is why, for traffic purposes, a moped is not a motor vehicle.
