Expired License = Big Hassle.......or at least it was for me! SenorPanocha, my friend, may I suggest the California ID card you can get at DMV. The reason is on my 1st trip to TJ I left my current license in my car, parked on the US side of the border. When I was done "playing" I used my expired license to show the Custom's Agent at the border check. It may have been a bad day for him or he was just an asshole period, but he read me the riot act for using expired documentation to enter the US. He made a big deal of it, making me go through a verbal tounge-bashing, to which I just hung my head since I figured getting BACK in the USA was more important than arguing the point. I did, however, pick up in his tirade that many people do use expired ID's for re-entry and I guess they are tired of it. His closing statement was "This time I'll do you a FAVOR and let you pass". I would not wish that to happen to any of you guys. BillyPV
