As of 1/1/07, can CA police officers link w/ DMV to see if auto insur. is current-- as of that particular day?

Answer 1

They don't need to. Insurance companies report to the DMV on the day that the policy is cancelled and that automatically gets included in any report that an officer makes when he 'runs' your registration.

That is why the PD no longer asks for proof of registration.

If the officer actually ASKs for it, you know you are f*cked from the start because it is coming up as un-insured.

At that point you better call a cab because the vehicle likely to get to get towed and YOU are well on the road to a 6 week suspended license (not to mention a rather stiff fine).

There is a bottom line here which you already know.
