Do you carry proof of citizenship when riding the bus on a domestic trip?

Oh, and at the age of 58 I am now in possession - for the very first time - of my certified birth certificate. Had a passport since I was 6 months old - not sure what M&D had to do at that time in orderr to procure said passport, so the BC was never on my mind.

It took about 10 minutes to fill out the form and address the envelope. Hardest part was enclosing the self addressed stamped envelope for the BC’s. Mailed request Weds. BC arrived in the mail today.

@dietz199 I wonder if you had an easier time getting your BC because you already had a passport. Would it be harder for someone if they only had a drivers license?Or what if they had some kind of expired or outdated form of id?

I would not assume that just because you were able to get it so quickly that others would also be able to get it so quickly as well.

However, I do think everyone should have some form of ID. You never know when you will need it.
