That should not happen here. The default jurisdiction was Ontario, and
because the province's driver licence and vehicle registration data bases
were linked we had extensive access to both. We could get out of province
plate information including all 50 US states. The only time the owner's
name would show up was if they had been involved in an incident here and
had a d/l generated to track it.
