I have had a stolen vehicle in my driveway since October of 2012
Took me 5 months to get the owners name and address
All I'm saying is there are ways of finding out if you have doubts.
I have owned and registered over hundred cars,trucks and motorsickles in the last 40 years and have never once had a cop actually check a VIN plate on any of my rigs and I have been stopped a bunch of times in many states.
They have run my licenses and titles a lot though.
When I did the trade for my 78 Vette I just gave the VIN to my insurance agent's secretary over the phone and she ran it for me in just a few seconds.
Just like that.
