Question 6659

For traffic purposes, is a motorcycle an automóvil?

  1. No, because automóviles are passenger cars.
  2. Yes, because it is a vehicle that moves under its own power.
  3. Yes.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes.

Yes. A motorcycle falls into this category because the law counts it as a motor vehicle and it is designed to carry people. Moving under its own power is not enough, because a moped (ciclomotor) does that too and does not fall into this category. Passenger cars are just one type within this category.
