In this paper we provide a local Cauchy theory both on the torus and in the whole space for general Vicsek dynamics at the particle and at the kinetic level. We consider rather general interaction kernels, nonlinear viscosity and nonlinear friction. We also establish the mean-field limit in the large particle limit. Particularly, we include normalised kernels which display a singularity when the flux of particles vanishes. Thus, in terms of the Cauchy theory for the kinetic equation, we extend to more general interactions and complete the program initiated in Gamba et. al. (2016) (where the authors assume that the singularity does not take place) and in Figalli et. al. (2017) (where the authors prove that the singularity does not happen in the space homogeneous case). Moreover, we derive an explicit lower time of existence as well as a global existence criterion that is applicable, among other cases, to obtain a long time theory for non-renormalised kernels and for the original Vicsek problem without any a priori assumptions.
