Can anyone check license plates?

Yes, in most states, anyone can contact the department of motor vehicles or the agency that issues license places and titles, to find out who owns a car. This information may be available online through a database, so check there first before you bother to go stand in line! You may have to use a special form.

Yes, Technically anyone can pay an on-line service to retrieve license plate registration information. Legally, Some states prohibit disclosing such information except to those "legally authorized" (legal officials, licensed investigators).
