Depends on a couple of variables. Normally if you are Joe Schmoe with no priors and the tags are recently expired they would just ticket you and let you go.
But if you are a habitual offender they will arrest you.
They will also arrest you if the tags have been expired or you haven't had insurance in a long period of time.
I would think that since it's LV that it's on of these 2 above. I can't imagine they would take up the jail space for something so minor unless they have to.
