    I was running trucks for a dealer, with dealer plates and that ####ing west hawk gave me a ticket for no log book (I had a printout from the manitoba dot saying im exempt because it was a purchased vehicle, in-transit on its way to the purchaser, with a dealer plate.

    They still gave me a ticket, I told them to blow me and was on my way... Never paid the ticket, never showed up in court, never been back through manitoba since... This was 10 years ago

    Any idea how I can find out if theres a bounty on my head in manitoba now?

    You should have got an Intransit Permit instead. Dealer Plate is a Commercial Plate and used by dealers for |Commercial purposes such as delivery or road testing purposes etc.

    I've never been asked for a ten year. Didn't know they even existed! When I pull an abstract, it's for 3 years(speeding tickets/accidents). When I pull my CVOR, it's 5 years(DOT inspections, OOS blah blah).
