License status, driver record, warrants and concealed weapon permits. Other information can be readily located (if the officer asks) using the information on the driver license.
This does vary state to state and maybe even jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Not all agencies show the same info when running plates. Some show very little information and some have a wealth of information. I do agree that any agency can get the above information, but not all of it is necessarily coming through just by running the plates. (might take an extra call or two!)
No, they can't because your insurance is linked first to your vin number and not to your license, but in some states when you cancel your insurance they inform the DMV, in the case the police office can check in the case !
Law Enforcement uses a "computer" called NCIC which the license is checked through. If the information matches there is a good chance the license is good. There are also hard to duplicate security features in every state's licenses which make manufacturing licenses difficult.
An impossible question to speculate on until the officer states his basis for the search in court.
the information gets logged in the dispatch computer or officer's log
You have not provided enough information to answer this question.

Well this is an interesting question. Since you do not have your license then you are legally not supposed to be driving on any public road. Furthermore not having your license means that you pretty much have no right. So yeah a police officer could search your car. Hope this helps
They call the license number into a computer system. This will check the driving record. It will also insure that it is a valid drivers license. the system will also check the license against any outstanding warrants to see if the driver is wanted for anything.
No.
This is a local question. Generally speaking the license is actually property of the state that issues it and may be held for any number of reasons.Licenses are often kept if the license is not valid, if you are arrested for a traffic crime requiring license suspension, or if the license is held in lieu of bail.

I have the same question! I was looking over the ticket I got last night and realized the officer clearly wrote a 9 as the last number in my drivers license number and the last number of my drivers license number is really a 3...I really hope this makes the ticket void.
