US does not check your passport when you’re leaving the country

It does check the passport information provided by your airline, which is how they inject if you’ve overstayed.

If that process gets screwed then you can be in a world of hurt mtge next time you visit.

Can you still leave by land to Mexico without any trace?

There is a classmate of my daughter (UK) whose family went to vacation in California. On a whim they decided to visit Mexico, but had left their passports at their San Diego hotel. They were allowed into Mexico without a passport and had an, ahem, interesting re-entry to the US. I’m surprised they were actually allowed back after several hours.
