In what circumstances is the effect of wind most dangerous when riding a moped?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Crosswind and, especially, gusty wind is the most dangerous for two-wheeled vehicles. Being light vehicles with little contact surface, an unexpected gust of wind from the side can abruptly deflect the moped's path, push it into the opposite lane or onto the shoulder, and even cause loss of balance and a fall. By contrast, headwind or tailwind affects acceleration, fuel consumption and braking, but does not compromise the vehicle's lateral stability or directional control as drastically.
