Are there any mopeds that can be driven without a license?
You do not necessarily need a driver's license to buy a moped, but you do need one to drive one. You need a license to drive any motor vehicle in the Netherlands. Do you still drive your moped without a license? Then you risk a hefty fine. Moreover, in case of damage, all costs are for your own account and you run the risk that the insurer terminates your moped insurance. You can read all about it here.
Consequences of driving without a license
Driving your moped without a license has consequences. For example, you run the risk of a €250 fine. In addition, you are also uninsured, even if you have ordinary moped insurance. An insurer will often not cover you if you cause damage while driving a moped without a license. Therefore, you will be responsible for all damage costs. Collision damage can be extensive, but if personal injury occurs, the financial consequences can be severe. The police are cracking down on these types of violations for good reason. Many people do not appreciate the danger and do not realize how much damage they can cause.
Driver's license and insurance required!
Having both a driver's license and moped insurance is mandatory. In the Netherlands it is compulsory to have at least a third-party insurance for a motor vehicle. This insures you for damage you cause to another person with your moped. Driving your moped without insurance also has financial consequences. The fine for driving without insurance is €420.
You can also get moped insurance without a driver's license. Not all insurance companies accept someone without a driver's license, but some do.
