Can you drive a moped at age 12?

In the US, the minimum age to drive a moped varies from state to state, and it is typically 14-16 years old and requires a valid learner's permit or driver's license. For example, in California, the minimum age is 15 years old, while in Texas, it is 16 years old. There may also be restrictions on what type of moped or scooter a person can operate at that age. It's important to check with your local DMV or MVD to determine the specific age and requirements in your area.
