The address details come back almost instantly on our computer systems. How long it takes to go to your house would depend on how far away they are from you at the time. How fast they go there and how hard they look for you will depend on what you did.

Virtually instantly if the address matches the plate. If the owner moved and did not notify the DMV, it might take an hour or so. If the owner is purposefully trying to hide, i.e. no legit job, no taxes, no forwarding address, no family or former neighbors to rat on them, it depends how motivated they are. Believe me,\they WILL find you.

As fast as the communications officer can type in the number to the NCIC system, which is usually working 24 hours, except for down time to revamp systems.
NCIC is linked with state criminal information systems (cis).
I think some police have computers in their cars that are connected to the system.

About 15-30 seconds after they call it in! That is as long as the computers are up.

Instantly. All cop cars have computers in them. When they take your license and walk away for a few minutes....they are checking your record.

Here in the People Republic of California the cop can punch in the plate number in his patrol car's computer and the DMV will respond in seconds.

Not all cops have computers in their cars, that would depend on the department. But all cops have dispatchers...so, it only takes a few seconds to pull that up.
