If it is under 50 cc then no, but if it is over that speed then you need a license.
That is a difficult question to answer as it is different from area to area. your best bet it to call city hall and ask, that’s what i did when i was your age and wanted a go-ped. Apparently it didnt matter that it was under 50cc or gas-operated, the city where i lived would not allow it legally. Calling saved me the trouble of buying the scooter and then later realizing that i cant use it legally.
Call your local sheriffs department.
No you don’t for an electric scooter. You can go to http://www.ivoog.com or something for more information.
