Finding out who a license plate belongs to can be useful in various situations, such as tracking down the owner of a vehicle involved in an accident or reporting a stolen car. There are a few different ways to go about finding this information, depending on the state or country where the license plate is registered.
In the United States, you can use the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) to search for vehicle information by license plate number. This service is available to consumers for a fee, and it provides access to data from state motor vehicle departments and other sources.
