Can you drive motorized scooters on shoulders/in bike lanes?

I'm considering a cross country trip on a motorized scooter (sort of like a Vespa type thing). I was originally planning to do it on a bicycle, but I realized I don't have the endurance for it. However, I'd still like to follow the route I've read about for bikers (which follows roadways, but is always driving on shoulders or in bike lanes).

Are motor scooters allowed to do the same thing? What is the general rule for this? Is there a speed cap?

Thanks

you cannot drive any motorized vehicle on the shoulder and you cannot ride in a bike lane either--bike lanes are for bicycles...but your chances of getting a ticket are not that great...assuming, of course, you are following the posted speed limit...
