Man, I know those scooters get called mopeds, and I had one when I lived in Hawaii because that's just the thing to do and they are ridiculously fun and actually practical out there...

But who's calling them motorcycles?

Well going by CAPTCHA standards, mopeds and motorcycles are identical and indistinguishable, so apparently our AI overlords.

I mean it's a bicycle with a motor so I guess the term technically applies.
