Which type of vehicle inquiry provides both Vehicle Registration information and the Stolen/Wanted response?

• A. In-State Vehicle inquiry by VIN
• B. Out-of-State Vehicle inquiry by OLN
• C. NCIC query by plate
• D. In-State and Out-of-State Vehicle inquiries by License or VIN

Answer: (D)

This item tests using a search that taps into both DMV vehicle data and interstate stolen/wanted records in one check. Vehicle registration information comes from the DMV, while the Stolen/Wanted response comes from NCIC and other law enforcement databases. Using a search by License or VIN that covers both in-state and out-of-state inquiries pulls registration details and also flags if the vehicle is reported stolen or wanted, regardless of where it’s registered. The other options either limit the data to one state, rely on a search key that doesn’t access registration records, or provide only the stolen/wanted status without the vehicle’s registration information. Thus, conducting both in-state and out-of-state vehicle inquiries by License or VIN is the one that yields both pieces of information.
