The first new law is confirmed (although I didn't verify the fine and costs):

Second is also correct, and our own Jim Roebuck was the prime sponsor:

Subject: [UC] New PA driving laws?
I was sent this by a friend who is often (but not always) reliable. Can
anyone confirm its veracity?
"Effective January 29, 2007 all motorists MUST turn on their headlights
whenever they use their windshield wipers in inclement weather. This new law
applies when wipers are fully on or in intermittent mode. Violators will be
fined $25 but fees/other costs will increase the amount to $100!!!
"Also, motorists will suffer substantial penalties if snow or ice on their
vehicle injures or kills someone. This is the first winter this law will be on
the books. Spread this information to all PA drivers that you know. (This
information was also published in this past Sunday's Inquirer)."
