Not sure if anybody has asked this or if this thread fits in the right category, but are you allowed to drive down to the states with your N?

[MeowMeow]

Yes. They don't care about your N as far as I know. Been down there with more then 1 person and not one problem.

If you're driving down more than 1, it's not a problem. It's coming back up that will be the problem.

He's asking if he can drive down to the States not if he can carry more people in the car.

Great. Thanks!
I was also wondering if I could bring 2 people with me instead as well :$... But they'd check on me right? So no?

Another question for you guys.... How $$$ do you guys usually spend going down and back from Seattle on gas and stuff? Just wanna know what you guys do while you're down there.

[JayEch]

depends how long you stay. Went a few weeks ago with gf. stay a night and we spent ruffly a grand with hotel and everything. When i do go for a day trip. dont really spend that much on cloths. i find there's nothing really good at the outlet nor nordstrom. Bring 500? I wouldnt spend that much on shopping tho. I go for the food. Talulip buffet and red lobster. That shits fucking great. And if your worried about getting taxed, just put some cloths you bought on while crossing the border. Asian style :fuckyea:

[Vale46Rossi]

The Tulalip buffet is fucking garbage.

[Mr.C]

The Tulalip buffet is fucking garbage.

Better than most of the overpriced crap here.

about $40 max in a 1.7L

usually $80 for me with Chevron 92 octane.

[double0seven]

I actually drove down with my parents with my L a few years ago. No problems lol

[TjAlmeida]

Cheesecake Factory...

Mmmmm, Red Velvet Cake...

Sorry what was the question?? ;)

I have only been to seattle once while driving with my N and i had 2 people in the car and they did not say a word. They are not cops, all they care about is that you are not trafficking illegals.

Have a good trip!

[hk20000]

they don't check your driver's license when crossing the border. You could have gone across without a valid DL for all they care.

[CorneringArtist]

They DID ask me about my EID N because it looks similar to the BCID's (I got the Enhanced ID since I don't have a passport). However, I just cleared up which card was my license and was on my way.

You shouldn't be worried about what happens if they ask you about having extra passengers at the border, they don't care in the states and consequences if you get pulled over while still in Canada are relatively minor. What you need to worry about is getting in an accident and have your insurance voided for driving contrary to restrictions, while carrying said extra passengers.

A 1.7L d17a2 should average 40-45mpg if you don't speed, expect to get approximately 600km out of your tank.

[FerrariEnzo]

If your restriction doesnt say anything about it, you can...
