Are moped drivers allowed to travel on the shoulders of expressways (autovías)?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is No, it is prohibited. General Traffic Regulations forbid animal-drawn vehicles, bicycles, mopeds, and vehicles for people with reduced mobility from using motorways (autopistas) and expressways (autovías). It is important not to confuse this rule with the exception for bicycles: cyclists over 14 years of age may ride on the shoulders of expressways (unless explicitly prohibited by a sign), but this exception does not apply to mopeds. Therefore, a moped may never enter an expressway, not even on the shoulder.
