Electric scooter headache. Can't get the mso/mco

Haven't driven a car or had a license in 18 years. Last year pandemic ebikes were legalized here in NY. So I bought one. Rode it for 7 months bought a new one. New one is red. Cops love pulling red vehicles over. But always released as I can't speed and didn't do anything wrong

Well now I have 5 tickets from a stubborn traffic cop. Thing is electric scooters that look like mine are considered mopeds..even though they have no pedals...
Anyways, I want to register it. I don't even know if they have an mco, as the guy said he does t have it. The shop owner I bought it from.the brand is flywing. And they are very big. All over the 5 boroughs. I'm on long island.
Our ebike laws are nonsense. Scooters up to a 100lbs. And only in population of 1 million or more.....

But how is it that there are hundreds of people riding these scooters and there are shops every 4-5 blocks selling them claiming they are legal?
