Re: Driving across the border
For Mr. Parkers benefit, every port of entry into Canada has a French lane which is mandated by Canadian Federal law. Canada is a bilingual country !
Jordan There is no shoulder in the tunnel or the bridge but you will have no trouble. Tale the Bridge in and tunnel out. That way you will get a panoramic view going in. If you take the tunnel in you will see tail lights and cement. The tunnel and the bridge are a mile plus long. Al |

Re: Driving across the border
Jordan If you are in no hurry, you should enter Canada about 50 miles North of Detroit by the Bluewater Bridge that connects Port Huron, Michigan and Sarnia, Ontario. Much, much prettier, scenic and not near as busy !

Re: Driving across the border
Yes Al, we are a bilingual country, and all the Border people must be fluent in both languages, but as for a separate lane, I've never seen one! How do they identify this to oncoming traffic? Please explain.....

Re: Driving across the border
We will be in a hurry, so we will probably just stick with the bridge/tunnel. THANKS Luckyal !!!

Re: Driving across the border
Mr. Parker
They of course are identified with lighted overhead signs at the larger ports of entry and post signs at the smaller ports. All officers are not bilingual ! About half the positions are designated bilingual. Of course only bilingual offers are posted to the bilingual lanes. Hope this explanation is sufficient ! I am happy to ad to your education. Al |

Does your state issue the Enhanced license? Typically you make an appointment at the DMV and provide birth certificate, voting registration card, a passport if you have one, and other citizen documents. Call the DMV asd inquire as to what they need for issuances. Have fun... Burt |

Re: Driving across the border
What is important is what documentation you need to reenter to the USA!!
https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/74 US Citizens - Documents needed for entry into the U.S. What documents, identification, and paperwork does a U.S. citizen need to travel internationally? If you are traveling in the Western Hemisphere (Canada, Mexico, Caribbean, Central and South America): Air Travel: All U.S. citizens departing from or entering the United States from within the Western Hemisphere by air are required to present a valid passport or NEXUS card (if utilizing a NEXUS kiosk when departing from a designated Canadian airport).

Re: Driving across the border
Thanks for your question. It prompted me to finally register. Before coming way up north, do some research for the areas you plan to visit and get some names and phone numbers of antique car clubs and their members. If you happen to have some problems you will be amazed at the help that will be offerred. Also, don,t short change yourself. Spend some time, enjoy the country, and get to know us.
