For better or worse, probably worse, the definitions of both "moped" and "scooter" vary from person to person or jurisdiction to jurisdiction. "Moped" is often used to describe a light motorcycle.

Scooter do not have pedals, mopeds do, hence the name.
The Piaggio Vespa is a scooter. The Piaggio Ciao is a moped.

Language changes. I guarantee if you ask 100 people to draw a moped, maybe 2 will put pedals on it.

No. Mopeds have pedals. That’s the “ped” part of motor pedal.
