SHEe DEVIL Posted April 7, 2006 Report Posted April 7, 2006 My good friend tried last yr to get acrossed the border to canada last summer after having a DWI. Its been about 3 yrs since he had one and they wouldnt let him across. Quote
sheefreak Posted April 7, 2006 Report Posted April 7, 2006 I have heard mixed results on this. They let me across when I was straight forward w/them, but that was 3 yrs ago. They turned back a good friend of mine, but he did not tell them when they asked. Quote
NYUK Posted April 7, 2006 Report Posted April 7, 2006 i don`t know how far back they check.but i got in and out of canada no problem back in oct.no dui, but i had a mess of legal problems 13 years ago. Quote
Fireroad Express Posted April 7, 2006 Report Posted April 7, 2006 as much as i hate to admit , these border guards really have thier shit together. they have really cracked down alot over the last few years.so heres a few tips to make things go a little smoother: they run your plate# and do an ID check so don't try to bullshit them, they know who you are and if you have a record (be honest with them). when they ask you a question don't hesitate when you give your answer. they think you are trying to a hide something when you don't answer quickly. and i know you guys like your guns down there, but whatever you do, don't try and take them accross the border with you. it's never a good thing when you get caught with one.
