I asked a local law enforcement officer, here in PA, recently about driving my 9N on the public roads. Seems like the following applies: Unless it is a "real" farm vehicle going to fields owned by the driver, the tractor must have: Licensed driver. SMV sign. 4-way flashers. PA "TRACTOR" license plate (current) Horn. If driven at night, suitable lights, headlights and tail lights. So, unless the tractor is used for ligitmate farm work, it requires just about everything that an automobles require. Well, I used to drive the 9N down to the local general store to pick up my "LUCKY's". So, I will either have to quit driving the tractor, or, start roll'in my own cigarettes. Hope this helps. :}) PS: We never got to the issue of liability insurance requirements. Here in PA, proof of financial responsibility is required for a license tag for autos. Somehow, we have a lot of migrant workers who git away with no PAPERWORK, drivers licenses, insurances, etc.
