    The moment a person establishes residency, ie: actually moves here and intends to live here full time.

    He has 15days to change is drivers license, change vehicle registration, and get car inspected. His PA issued DL will be proof enough for the state. Some sheriffs are dicks and require proof of payment on local taxes, utilities, etc too.

    Which should be noted is not legal for them to do, however they will continue to do so until challenged.
