In Georgia you must have some sort of license. A learners is good enough though and a road test isn't required for the learners license.

I don't see why they'd bother you since you have to have a license and registration in MD as well as insurance, assuming you obey their laws like where to ride and how fast. I used to ride into DE before MD required a registration sticker, so I had no form of ID whatsoever on the scoot, while they required stickers or tags. Never got pulled over. Actually, I have only been pulled over since being registered because MD issues ORV (off road vehicle) stickers to scooters and a DE cop didn't think I was road legal so he had to call in and find out. Once he knew it was legal on the road, he sent me on my way. I would think most officers would see that you meet your state's requirements and not be hard on you if you were pulled over, but I guess you never know. It may be different if someone's state requires no insurance and you ride where it is required though. Now that I have insurance and reg stickers, I wouldn't worry too much about riding wherever, as long as I know how to ride there, because I think of it like a car or truck or motorcycle at this point. I'd wouldn't worry about driving my insured and MD registered truck into another state. You can always contact North Carolina police and/or motor vehicle division and find out for sure. I emailed DE before I ever rode there and carried a printout of an email response saying it was alright under my seat just to be sure. Yeah I don't see it being a problem for me since Maryland laws require more then North Carolina. But I could see someone running into trouble if they were from a state that didn't require a license, registration, or insurance, and brought thier scooter to a state like Maryland and were stopped by police. I think the biggest issue would probably be riding in another state that requires insurance but you live in a state that doesn't. The police probably wouldn't care if your scooter is not registered if your not from Maryland. But if you came from a place like N.C to ride in MD and didn't have insurance you now become a financial liability to other drivers on MD roads and possibly violating a law.
