Did you get some form of enhanced ID that lets your cross or are you stuck here in the US?

This came up in the spring meets/track days thread and I found it hard to believe a lot of people didn’t bother getting some form of ID.

EDIT:  
Poll fail. Kept getting timeout errors while trying to add the poll. I don’t see any way to edit my post to add a poll now, so it’s up to a mod I guess.

EDIT2: NOW WITH 100% MORE POLL!

What are you asking? You need a passport or special ID card.

Or am I just in before the pole?

It used to be if you went into edit, then advanced you could add one I think. Maybe it’s different now with all the “upgrades.”

just happened that the Enhanced license came out same time my license expired so I got it.

In theory you still could cross, just have to go to secondary inspection to prove citizenship and who you are from what I gather, that’s what happened when a friend of mine crossed w/o.

It used to be in thread tools, not sure if it still is.  
:edit: I just checked, it is still there. Just click on “Thread Tools” at the top of the first post.

last time i made a poll it was right below the submit thread thing or whatever… right under the text box

i have my enhanced, but i’ve only used it once.

Do you guys keep your enhanced in your wallet in place of your reg license, or keep it at home? I look way cooler in my enhanced pic but i use my old license lol

Nice, never noticed that was there.

Yeah, well aware of that. But as I said in the first post I kept getting a timeout error when I tried to save the poll.

Used to go maybe once a year for a car show or something, isn’t worth my time/money to get one yet. Plus so many people don’t have them that it wouldn’t probably be hard to get a decent group to go over there anyway.
