JZRIV Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 The PADOT was created in 1970 so it was then or shortly after. PADOT took over the Dept of Highways as well but Higways did not handle vehicle licensing. Vehicle licensiing was handled by Dept of Revenue from 1929. 1970 is a bit of a guess on the assumption it was one of the reasons the DOT was formed. Any any rate, it was not before 1970 because the DOT did not exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
