Re: Can I be arrested at the DMV
Yes, they can. You had better deal with the warrant and court case before coming into contact with any police, or government agency; you could be taken away in handcuffs. It would be a lot easier to have an attorney appear with you in court and get the warrant lifted as part of handling the charges. Contact me if interested in doing so.
