It was a three year lease, 445/month, never missed a payment until the residential crash, one letter after two month of not turning it back in. I had no other vehicle at the time and just put on a fake tag emblem and drove it around. Not much, just when I had to.

How do I find out if Toyota wrote it off?
So the registration for the car is in YOUR name or the leasing companies name? There woudl be no reason for anyone to check your lease when renewing your drivers license. You don't even have to have a car to have a license.

If it's in your name, you can run a lien check to see if they have a lien out against the car (prevents you from selling it).

If it's in the leasing companies name, it's their car and you effectively possess a stolen vehicle.
