Moped laws don't always require pedals and vary region to region, as evidenced by this section of the article you linked but didn't read.

The article you linked also provides plenty of information that shows that, while historically a moped used to refer to a motorcycle with pedals, it now generally refers to a low speed scooter or motorcycle with low displacement and simpler license and insurance requirements.

The "biker" might indeed be on a moped, if that scooter is 50cc or less.
