2/23 Do I need my passport on me to drive from San Diego
to Tijuana and back?
\_ No, but you are supposed to carry your Driver's license and
some other official proof of your identity, like your voter
registration card. Why not bring your passport? Also, make sure
that you have Mexican car insurance.

\_ I thought the rules for that changed a while back, so that you
always need your passport when entering the country?
\_ It looks like you are right.
\_ So what happens if you just don't have it? Do you have to
go through some giant hassle and visit some sort of embassy?
\_ I am guessing if you don't look Latino and you don't get
into any trouble with the law in Mexico, that nothing
happens to you. I have never been asked to show any ID
travelling across the US border by land and I have
crossed it at least 20 times. If you get arrested in
Mexico and you don't have ID, this could really suck
for you though. I am not sure what ICE would do to you,
probably detain you until you could prove citizenship.
