I'm sure it depends on the city. Here, police officer are so busy with other things, they don't actively look for people with warrants. If you have an outstanding warrant against you, it will probably come up on a traffic stop when they run your driver license and you will be arrested then.

Yes, they can pull you over and ask for your license and registration as part of a routine stop. At the same time, you will probably be checked for outstanding warrants as part of the process. However, most police won't do so unless they have a reason to, such as bad driving or a broken light.

How many warrants can a teenager get before they get arrested?

It could be one. There are search warrants and arrest warrants. If you have a search warrant, the police are entitled to search your property. After executing the search warrant, if the police establish probable cause to believe that you committed a crime, they can arrest you. If you have an arrest warrant, it is only a matter of time before the police find you and execute the arrest warrant.


If a warrant is issued by the police why wouldn't someone get arrested?

Warrants are NOT issued by the police. Warrants are issued by the court - they are then given to the police to carry out. The police operate on PROBABLE CAUSE, and if you know that they want someone, perhaps they do not have sufficient probable cause for an arrest or, perhaps, they may not have been able to locate the individual.
