Let's put it this way... they run your name and DOB through the computer in order to to confirm that you are really are, who you say are. What do you think?
no
Not the DMV officials themselves, but they will certainly notify law enforcement the minute they see on their computer that you are wanted.
Got the same question
Probably not. All states check for warrants as part of their process in which they issue licenses and ID's
You need to call the courts that issued the warrants. If you don't know, check with the DMV. ADDED: On the off-chance they don't have violations that old in their computer system you might want to START with the DMV.
No, not routinely, usually only a DMV and a CURRENT wants and warrants check is run, although he CAN request it.
Since the ID card will be valid throughout the state, they perform a statewide check.
No way to answer this question. If the DMV checks the criminal records database to (for instance) to check your ID, they CAN find your criminal status. If they don't, they won't.
can you get a id if you have a traffic warrant in new jersey
yesAnother View: As a strictly "by-the-book" procedural matter, yes, they could. In reality, probably not, as long as you are appearing there and making a good faith effort to clear them up and make restitution.
It would not be necessary for a DMV to do a separate 'background check' of the applicant, due to the fact that an applicant must supply valid indentication to receive a state ID. When that information is entered into the DMV system it will in all likelihood indicate whether there are any issues such as outstanding warrants, that would prevent the person from obtaining a valid state ID.
No, arrest warrants do not expire. You will have to settle it with the court. Added: In addition to that, because of the unanswered DUI, your driving privileges are no doubt suspended or revoked by the state. DMV records never "go away" and all states are linked via interstate data transfer.
