will they definitly find it?
Pretty much, yes.
...so if you have one, you'd do well to consult with an attorney to negotiate the terms of your surrender and get it straightened out.
Getting tossed into jail after a routine traffic stop is much less pleasant.
Remember, almost all warrants have a particular range on them. So if you're in California worried about some shoplifting warrant from Florida, you haven't much to worry about it. If it's a warrant from your neighboring town, you have much to worry about.
Incidentally, just because you have a warrant and are pulled over doesn't mean you'll go to jail. Sure, the odds are stacked against you, but the originating agency (of the warrant) might decline to extradite, usually for jail space issues.
But why you'd want to play on those odds is beyond me; handle the warrant.
the officers have the equipment to pull up your record on their computer and do just that 99 out of 100 times. You will get caught if you are pulled over. I suggest that you contact and attourney and surrender to avoid further consequence.
If you're in a vehicle titled to you, any officer with a good dispatch crew should be flagged about the warrant as soon as the tag is called in for the traffic stop. At least in my agency, our officers usually know if the registered owner is wanted before they even step out of the cruiser - if they wait an extra 10 seconds or so they'll be aware of the charge, the extradition parameters, and any non-expunged criminal history as well.
Take care of the warrant. They don't go away.
you can be caught like this also

Just to clear up, I don't have a warrant. Can I PM anyone?
Then why the question?
And you can try to PM just about anyone ... some people don't accept or reply to PMs, however.
Whether a warrant is discovered or not will depend upon a number of factors: Level and type of offense, state of issuance, criminal or civil warrant, extradition desired or not, etc. In some instances, the warrant may only be applicable in the county of issuance. In others, it will be applicable state wide, in still others, the warrant can be served in a geographic region involving a number of states. This is really not a "yes" or "no" question.

Not necessarily. I was picked up on a warrant from one town but they didn't find the other one I have from a couple towns over in the same county. I guess it depends on the seriousness of the charge and how desperate they are to find you.
