EDL and Passport. I think it’s easier to just have my ID on me, in my wallet, when going over the border and not have to worry about my passport. I always feel like I am going to lose my passport or have it stolen so I don’t like to have it on me when I don’t need to. Plus the EDL is only $30 more than a standard license. ---

I’m really surprised in how many no’s we have. The EDL is only $30 on top of your regular license and it’s good for 8 years. I understand not wanting to go through the hassle for a passport but the EDL takes about 15 minutes at the DMV and then it comes in the mail a couple weeks later. ---
