I was caught with about 1/4 of a spliff in a matchbox whilst sitting in a car talking to a friend. I'm 25 and had never been in trouble with the police in my life. Not even a speeding ticket.
Wasn't taken to the station or had fingerprints taken, just asked to sign a piece of paper and sent on my way.
:(

We have too many druggies as it is.
Why should we import more?

First of all the only caution which has any effect in law is one where you are arrested, subsequently charged and admit the offence, but it is then decided not to be worthwhile taking you to court. Instead you receive a Formal Caution, which is recorded in the same way as a conviction in court.
I'd check the US's criteria carefully, if I were you, it sounds more like you basically received a "street caution", which is not placed on a criminal record in the same way.

Do you know for certain that you will not be allowed to enter the U.S, or did you just hear it from someone else?

I'd check out your facts ,as I don't think that a caution
will affect you in that way.

You will not be allowed into the USofA because they want to keep all the cannabis for themselves and will not let any one come in and smoke it with them. Selfish lot.
