I have tried do a search on the net and have not found anything. Is there anyone here from Georgia that can list a link or tell me what they have found out.
Thanks

A quick GTS search came up with this for your state;

40-1-1(30) - Motor driven cycle:* Every motorcycle, including every motor scooter, with a motor which produces not to exceed five brake horsepower, every bicycle with a motor attached, and every moped.

Source: https://dps.georgia.gov/georgia-code-low-speed-vehicles

Rules to operate mopeds on Georgia roads and highways:
Must be 15 years of age and have in their possession an unexpired driver's license, instructional permit or limited permit.
Must wear protective headgear (motorcycle helmet).
No tag is required.
Every person operating a moped upon a roadway must obey the same traffic laws governing drivers of motor vehicles.
May not use limited access highways or other roadways where the minimum speed limit is above 35 mph.

Hope this helps.....

The law also states 50cc or less on engine size, I've been riding my bikes for 5 years here in Newnan and Coweta county with no problems. The law also says the top speed must be below 30 mph. Both of mine will do better but I try to hold it down to not bring attention to myself.
