Even if you got stopped (I would imagine you mean by the police), the likelihood they would even ask or know what they are is very slim. The people concerned with the legalities of gliders in any state are not likely the same people that are pulling you over. JMPO.

When I was moving from NM to OR, I called and asked the Wildlife (whatever.. It's such a long name ) in CA and they said they could seize my babies. Soooo.... We changed the route of our travel to avoid CA. BUT... I could have been misinformed and it wouldn't have been a big deal. It could also vary from state to state.

The only state line people I had to deal with in my move was in AZ, so I don't know about other states and how common it is. But they were really frustrating. We had to empty out HALF of the UHaul! I was so irritated!

According to my husband (who is full of random information) once you cross a state line, you are bound by that state's laws and regulations. So, if they are illegal in the state, then they can be seized. IMO, I would just avoid those states. Even though most officers wouldn't think or even care to ask what they are, I wouldn't want to risk getting the one officer who would.

Thanks guys!
I didn't so much mean the cops as, you know, the state line people. (There are state line people, right? Can you tell I don't travel much?) I have traveled across, including moving with u-hauls, many times and was NEVER stopped by anyone. I dont think there are any "state line people" but maybe I just missed them?

Get a medical exam from your vet n have it on you to show the police where you are going that allows Gliders - we did that moving from PA (illegal) to Illinois (legal) Good luck Sue owned by

Hubby informed me last night that I misheard him. He just meant "state line people" as in the cops who check your cars coming from NH back into ME to see if you have fireworks (which are illegal without a permit in ME). So what he said doesn't even really apply to gliders, which are legal in both NH and ME. I am such a ditz. However, I am glad for all this info! It's good to know! My parents are pressuring us to come visit them in Florida and I told them, "No way am I leaving my babies!" (I seriously travel twice a year for 24 hours each time. That's it.) And they said, "Well, bring them!" But I think that'd make me even MORE nervous, as I think I'd have to drive through MA *and* PA. What a wreck I'd be. I'd much rather just not go on vacation. Easier all around.

If you're traveling through CA, depending on what route you're on, they do have stops for immigration down near San Diego, I want to say it's on the 5. At these stops, they'll ask you if you have any agricultural products, such as produce, plants or meat products. I'm originally from CA and I've been stationed there off and on throughout my time in the Navy, to include in San Diego itself. Every time I traveled up north, I had to wait in line so everyone in front of me could be asked about what or who might be in their minivans.
They *can* search your vehicle, but I've never had it happen. Usually they're looking for untreated wood infested with gypsy moths, fruit flies and stowaway foreigners, not gliders. If you have them pouched under a shirt, they *can't* ask you to take your shirt off, as that's not part of the drill.
Not that this applies to you since you're on the East Coast, but someone else might need to travel through CA and it might be helpful.

I have been thought and even been camping in Mass a million times with Gliders and last yr went thought PA. I was not stopped nor did it even cross my mind about the gliders. Did I do the speed limit ummm not always, forgot to tell my foot we had an illegal passenger LOL.
I can even say I had gliders flown into Logan airport in Boston once and not a word from anyone. Now if anything was going to be said the airport would have been the place.
Just go about your trip relax and enjoy.
Hanna do you go thought PA to Florida or get on 95 South all the way??
Have a Good Day Brenda & Mr. Magoo

Ive talked to Angell memorial, a vet hospital in MA, they said they do emergency visits for gliders. The only reason i called and asked was because if i ever needed a backup backup vet, it would most likely be them, theyre amazing.

I just want to add my two cents, but I passed through California for much of my travels getting my babies. I also used to live in Southern California. There ARE agricultural stops near Mexico, borders of Arizona, and to Nevada. They are only allowed to inspect your car from outside the vehicle unless the spot something obvious (such as imported lumber or fruits and veggies). Many times, we are simply waved through. Plus, a lot of the pet stores in CA sell food for exotics like ferrets, hedgehogs, and sometimes even gliders. I'm sure they know there are many exotic owners, and still offer supplies for them. I'm not saying you shouldn't be cautious--you should. But they're not looking for your gliders. They've been in a bonding pouch on my lap once and we got waved through, and another time I had them crab in my shirt. Don't make it suspicious and they won't have a need to bother you. But to be completely honest I think the checkpoints in California are a lot more lenient than other stops I've seen...

Then they were not following protocol because they had us empty half of my UHaul and looked inside. They were also looking in other cars. Not all, but some.

I cross MA all the time, only my hometown cops have seen them and they love them LOL ETA I picked the last 2 up in MA on a RR from south, went to my brother's and a restaurant and drove home. My wife carries the pouches and no one ever asks why/what?
