What is basically happening, is that our ultra liberal governor from the State of New York while pandering for vote's, is now giving illegal immigrants, drivers licenses and refusing to give the I.C.E. people their names and addresses. So the White House is going to make it hard for the State of New York whenever they can.

Seems to me that its a good thing for the Feds to be able to verify vehicle ownership before export. If the state won't let them access that info how are the Feds going to do that?

JimG · 02-09-2020, 12:18 PM

The provision of the new NYS "Green Light" law allowing illegal immigrants to get NYS driver's licenses prevents NYS DMV from sharing information with the Feds. As a result, the Feds have cut off all NYS residents from applying for the Federal Government trusted traveler programs (NEXUS, Global Entry, etc...). This has been well publicized in my area, as we live right on the border with Canada and there is a lot of cross border traffic that will be impacted. This is the first I have heard of the impact of exporting vehicles, but it makes sense. NYS is apparently now the only state that will not share DMV data with the Federal Government - all to protect illegal immigrants.

Some of the stuff going on now days reminds me of the political climate in the years that led up to the civil war.

We are far from secession of states right now but we will know how far it will go after the next election. I just hope that sanity will prevail over all. Laws that are currently on the books should be enforced. If a change is due then they should agree to make the change as appropriate. This is just one time where politics has adversely affected our hobby. I hope it's the last time.

New York is also working to get the BAC lowered from .08 to .05. What's that about 2 beers? Don't they have anything better to do? Along with the "Safe Act" the state is going down the shitter.

My intention for this post was not political part but the awareness of the export/import of vehicle issues at hand.I have a friend who exports out of NY/NJ vintage cars several times a year to Europe and this will affect his business.

Yeah, no matter what side you are on please leave your political BS, conspiracy theories etc on a website that likes them.

I believe Utah already has gone to .05. A 12oz. beer raises the BAC of a 150 pound person approximately .02. Off course there are other factors involved but the general consensus is .02. And for what its worth you burn of .02 BAC per hour and from what I understand a person's weight isn't a factor.

Sadly laws are not treated the same New York has one opinion and its their right our leader has his idea of what laws mean as well as the senate overall its sad.
