Is it correct to assign the action as "riding", or as "driving" when using the vehicle? Should there be a clarification in the wiki for motorcycle? How many other transportation tags are worth looking into for action classification?

I'd say ride.
You drive a car, you ride a motorcycle.
Both are correct because it's a motor vehicle, whereas you don't drive a bicycle (bike) because it's not
However "ride a motorcycle" is 6–8x more common in usage than "drive a motorcycle" overall, and it's safe to say in most cases people are riding motorcycles solo
