you shouldnt have anything in your car that is illegal because they can search your shit at the drop of a hat and you cant do anything, plus they have drug dogs and shit so its really not worth risking, and if you dont have anything in your car thats illegal it wont matter if your car gets searched, so buy weed in canada because its probably cheaper

just a heads up, when you go, make sure you have your birth certificate(sp), and other photo id, which can make it quicker, and have them ready. i have seen people ripping appart suit cases looking for their birth certificate.

^just make sure you have all you and your friends passports before you arrive to the border, so you can easily give them to the cop. turn down the music and look as non-threatening as possible. take off your hats and sunglasses etc...

that usually works for me. i doubt much would happen if they found alcohol, but just put it in like an ice tea containor or a coke bottle so its not super obvious.

plus youve gotta declare if youve got booze, so if they found it youd get in more trouble for not declaring it

I went with my school last weekend and at the boarder a cop came on the bus and asked if anyone wasnt born in canada or the U.S one girl was... he checked her passport, no one elses and got off the bus. On the way back into Canada a cop didnt even come on the bus haha

I just crossed this past weekend with just a liscence. But yeah if you're under 18 you probably need a notarized note signed by both your parents.

i think if your under 18 you can walk across the border and if your over 18 you can drive across the border. sounds stupid but im pretty sure thats what the laws are

get a note from your parents (and everyone else's parents obviously), and bring your passport. and don't have any alcohol or drugs in your car.
