Doesn't work with Nexus - the print-out tag will refer me to secondary even if I have a plausible explanation for the answer and tell the inspector collecting forms. My option is to use the special-services line and avoid the kiosk and clear the items there, or use the kiosk and accept the secondary.
All my secondaries have taken a few moments - nothing longer than 5 minutes which is still a good 30-40 minutes less than using the regular line as a non-Nexus member.
Edited to add: I know it's not germane to this thread, but another posted wrote that Nexus members are not allowed to use Special Services or Crew Counters and either use kiosks or stand in the general lineup - this is incorrect. Nexus members may use a special-services or crew lane and bypass the general line. Info is found here:
