What's New

New Cell Phone Law

No matter where you live, it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with your state's cell phone laws. If you’re a driver in California, keep reading as new legislation recently went in effect.

As of July 1, 2008, CA drivers older than 18 must use hands-free equipment while driving; those younger than 18 are prohibited completely from using their cellular phones except in case of emergency. Get the specifics on our Safety Laws pages.

Have Passport, Will Travel

When traveling by air, all U.S. citizens must present a passport or a secure travel document to reenter the United States. This includes children.

When traveling by land or sea, oral declarations of citizenship at the border will no longer get you through a U.S. border crossing. As of January 31, 2008 all U.S. citizens age 19 and older must present documentation proving identity and citizenship, such as a driver’s license plus a birth certificate; those younger than 18 are only required to show proof of citizenship.

This documentation must include your name, your photo and your date of birth. To view a full list of acceptable documents go to the official site of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Here, you’ll also find some FAQs on required travel documents. This resource is also invaluable for information on applying for or renewing a passport.
