I think its pretty much all the info the DMV has on the vehicle.
Everything. Absolutely everything. :)

i asked a coworkers husband if he could tell if someone was licensed to carry a firearm, and he said no. when they run your plates, it displays the vehicle info only. color, make, model, stolen, etc.

I know that some can see if the registered owner has warrants, but I don't know which agencies have this capability.
do they have the ability to see if your license is suspended
Gee whiz, I wonder if you're planning on driving on a suspended license?

FYI: A conviction for driving on a revoked license carries a mandatory jail term... there's no deferred or suspended sentences for it, because Colorado law explicitly forbids that and requires time in jail. Get a red license if you have to drive.

Only if you get found guilty weston. I didn't have to serve any time except for the overnighter for my suspended driving privilege charge. Defense lawyers ftw

My license was suspended twice in iowa. Don't risk it cuz if you do it will be worse then if you didnt drive. If the car is registered in YOUR name it will show up that its suspended if it is under someone elses name then it wont. if they dont have their license suspended.

The cop that pulled me over for expired tags must be physic then. He stopped at the back of my truck and asked if I a weapon on me. He knew I had a permit before he pulled me over.

Word. I believe all CO Agencies can tell if you have a CCW. Thats what my neighbor told me, he's a State Patrolman.

As of July 1, 2007 there is not allowed by law to be a database of CCW holders, so outside of your county of issue they should NOT know.

Well FWIW, this was in my county. Also, he was behind me for a long time so he could've had time to run my name after running my plates.

From what I understand, they can tell all of your vehicle information, and now whether or not you have verified insurance and when your tags will/did expire.
