My response:

I want to let you know, I earnestly tried to find some authority for the validity time of a driver's license for PA. However, no such luck. I imagine, however, the rule is not too far off from California's rules; i.e., the length of time depends on your record in the previous 4 years. Perhaps Mama Bear's records are a little cleaner than Papa Bear's? Or, there is some other factor that makes you and her different in the eyes of the law. I also imagine, a quick call to your local DMV will get a better answer for you, but I think you'll get basically the same answer.

Thanks for writing.
