How do I look up the address for a license plate in CA?

Question

Every morning at around 7 this car drives by and honks. This has been going on for about six weeks. I have the license plate number and I want to get her address so I can send this gal a letter asking her to stop. I live in California. I imagine this is public record, but I no idea how to access it with paying some website for the answer.

Vehicle Code section 1810 allows you to complete a firm (INF 70D/70R) to request registration information about a vehicle. There are rules and fees, and the person will be notified that you asked for the information.

Vehicle Code section 27001 makes it a crime to use your horn unless it's necessary. Perhaps you can contact your local law enforcement agency and have them do the legwork for you on this. Depending on how busy they are, they might be willing to contact this person for you and educate them on the use of the horn.

If you want to do this yourself, go here:
