They cannot impound an atv that is registered for riding in state land, but they may be able to impound it for other reasons...maybe if a cop (not ranger) stops them on a roadway and the driver blew a .08 or higher and is drunk?? its possible since they are a danger to themselves or others and not just trespassing. The funny thing about pa registration is that nj recognizes reciprocity of neighboring states' registration...in this case pa and also ny. I'm also getting a vt. plate being i go up there a lot too and vt. recog's pa registration, but they don't recog New Hampshire ones..lol. Its what the states work out w/each other.

For those that want more info, vt is separated into 10-12 counties..each county has roughly 3-5 atv clubs. They pool their $ together and pay land owners to ride on their land. They cannot ride on V.A.S.T trails though. To be able to ride in vt, one needs to join a club, get registration in vt or have it reg in a state that vt recognizes and buy a vt plate and club decal..then you can ride anywhere in vt...legally. You can even ride on the highway if it's over a certain amt of accumulation of snow from what i read.

I did get called back to Pa since they rejected my initial registration...i had it right that i was class II, but the licensing office put me down as a class 1. Class 1- 1000lbs or under and under 50" in width. Class 2- 1k or greater and over 50" in width. I went back and they gave me the correct plate for atv-2. I'm 1k but 58" w/the long arm. Certain state parks limit widths to 52" and narrower (i am assuming b/c guys would be taking their suzuki sami's there)...that limits me on riding in parks but pa has a host of private parks that will take anything.
