Very few state DMV sites offer license plate search services. Wisconsin, one of the few, allows motorists to type in their license plate numbers and check expiration dates, emission requirements and suspension information.

Using a license plate look up service contains many other advantages. For instance, if you're the victim of a hit-and-run accident, you can use the license plate search to identify the driver. Or you can use it to track the name of the person parked in your private parking space.

However, the majority of states do not offer a search for a license plate number, primarily because of protecting an individual's privacy.
