A class 1 electric moped is a motor vehicle, equipped with either two, three or four wheels, designed to reach top speeds of up to 45 km/h. This classification depends not only on the number of wheels, but also on the specific type of motor installed in the electric moped.
It is of utmost importance to understand that all Class 1 E-mopeds must be registered and equipped with a clearly visible license plate mounted on the rear of the vehicle. In addition to this, it is necessary that all Class 1 electric mopeds are insured before they can be used on the road. You should also be aware that these mopeds cannot be driven on cycle paths, their use is strictly limited to public roads.
To legally drive a class 1 electric moped, you need to be at least 15 years old and have an AM license in your possession. In terms of safety, it is of the utmost importance that you always wear a helmet while riding. If you have passengers under the age of 7, they can wear other forms of protective headgear, such as a riding helmet, ski helmet or bicycle helmet. Note, however, that if your electric moped is equipped with a body and you are wearing a seat belt, you do not need to wear a helmet.
If you are considering converting your electric moped from Class 1 to Class 2 or a 30 moped, you should know that this is not allowed. This is because when your moped was first registered, a Certificate of Conformity (CoC) was issued that specifically certifies it as a Class 1 moped. This certificate cannot be subsequently changed or adjusted.
If your electric moped is not registered, it can only be driven in fenced areas, such as railway, factory or competition areas. Driving an unregistered vehicle and causing an accident can be a costly affair, as insurance may not apply if the vehicle is not registered. In order to register and legally drive the vehicle, it must meet the requirements of the specific vehicle type, which is normally proven by a CoC certificate.
