And you were given truthful answers Pretty much any time they feel like it. Cops are taught from day one at the academy that their main job is to make arrests and there are any number of reasons to pull you over. Even if you are the most straight up law abiding citizen on the planet a cop is taught to find a reason to pull you over then you are suspected of a crime and then they can stretch the boundries of probable cause. Hmm this guy didn't signal a turn let's see what else he might be up to?

It's very rare because almost nobody ever says no. You actually have to not consent to a search for you to have a case.

This. Don't believe the "probable cause" argument because the police officer can make up anything to get your vehicle searched. And if you deny him access to your vehicle, he will call in a drug dog, trigger the dog to alert, and tear your vehicle apart
The Supreme Court just ruled recently that the police cannot detain you beyond the time necessary to take care of whatever the original offense was. Say you get pulled over for speeding. It only takes five minutes or so to write out a ticket. They can't make you wait for their dog to show up. A half hour later.

To search the passenger compartment, they need reasonable suspicion that you have a weapon. Reasonable suspicion is defined as articulable facts that would lead a reasonable person to suspect the presence of a weapon.
To search the entire vehicle during a traffic stop, they need probable cause. Probable cause is facts and circumstances that lead to a determination that there is a reasonable chance that evidence of a crime will be found.
There are literally millions of different possible scenarios that could lead to an unlawful search, and no one can possibly articulate all of them. You should start by stating the facts of how the stop and search took place.

Most drug possession cases never make it to trial either. Suppressing evidence is pretty tricky, so the plea bargain is usually more attractive.

I 100% agree with you except ive heard recently that it was deemed unconstitutional for cops to make you wait for a dog at a traffic stop. Although what are you gonna do if they say to wait for a dog? Run? we already know what happens to people who run from cops, and half the people on this site will defend the cops reaction to your running.

Whenever the fuck they want to. Give them immediately what they know they'll find. When I got my first dui I had 90 extasy pills and 5 individually bagged bags of weed. I gave him my personal stash and my pipepile . And I didn't have to stay more than 4 hours in jail just went through processing.

Don't say shit I would have been so fucking fucked. Especially in Alaska it was decremanilized a long time ago. I just shut my fucking mouth. I remember picking my car up the next day and the first thing that came to hand was the extasy. The dui sucks but thank God. I would've been so fucked.

Alaska State Troopers TV show makes that state look fucked. Don't consent to a search? Fine, we'll just tow your car and have a dog sniff it for a warrant. I don't know anywhere else that does that.
Wonder if this Supreme Court ruling people keep mentioning will change that.

Ihateyou said: well, yeah but when do they have the right to search your car?
under the law they have to have probably cause, meaning that they know a crime has been committed and they're simply collecting the evidence through the search also by law, you can insist on a search warrant to be present and in your hand before you allow that search, if they are so positive that you are in possession of say a pound of marijuana then they'd have no problem getting a search warrant, the car is in fact an extension of your home and subject to most of the same laws regarding searches. keep in mind that cops will try to use some tricky wording to gain permission, they'll ask "do you mind of I search your car" a simple no is a persmission, your responses need to be articulate, specific and firm. they also need to be consistent
cop: can I search your car?
you: I do not give you permission to search my car
cop: do you have something to hide?
you: I do not give you permission to search my car
cop: you refusing the search tells me you're hiding something
you: if that is your belief then I'm sure you'll have no problem obtaining a search warrant from a judge
cop: if you just let us search things will go much easier on you
you: I do not consent to a search of my vehicle, am I free to go?
cop: you're not free to go, I'm going to search your vehicle
you: am I under arrest or being detained, I would like to know what charges and I need to inform you that I do not consent to a search of my vehicle
there is no need to be Mr.Politeness, dont be an outright dickhead but make sure that you speak above a normal tone and clear so that any recording devices will capture your voice, if the cop is someone quiet, ask him to seak up as well as you suddenly suffer from mild hearing loss
when you exit your car, lock the door and put the keys in your pocket or you can do as I do, lock the keys in the car. do not fight or argue with the cops, if he is determined to search your car then you should not stop him or try to stop him outside of the verbal announcement that you do not consent to a search
any cop that has probable cause will know what you have and the general area where it's located such as the trunk or the passenger compartment, he'll be able to specifically state these things before his search and you most definitely need to ask. all of these things will play in your favor in court
now, in the case of an illegal search, anything found will most likely be tossed out as inadmissible because the search that uncovered it was an illegal search. if you are arrested for a warrant or something they will frequently search your car to 'inventory it' before it goes to an impound lot, this is one of the reasons for locking the car when you get out
if you're like me, you will never be holding anything illegal so any search is an illegal search and when nothing is turned up in an illegal search it really makes them look like fools when you take it to court especially if a drug dog has alerted on the car. I've had several sniffs but never once has a dog given a signal. make sure to ask the dog handler exactly what the dog's signal is, most will bark a couple of times and then sit down and wait for a reward. anything other than that specific alert action is a cop yanking your chain because he certainly wants to search.

I've cussed a cop on a few occasions, down right dickhead cop cussing, telling him exactly what I thought, while it is legal for you to speak your mind, it's illegal for them to arrest you for doing so which is why they have charges such as disturbing the peace. make sure when you say things such as "do you suck cock because you damn sure look like a dirty cock sucker you retarded parking lot nazi" that you do so at a moderate tone so everyone in the area cannot hear it
then claim you have tourettes

My friends and I used to like driving past the State Troopers and flip them the bird, occasionally yell 'Fuck the police!'
I'm not really sure what was so fun about that looking back on it.

You would thank that is the case but you have to be holding nothing. I remember I was walking to my best friends house as my parents were fighting. Am I being Detained? Sat down and rolled a smoke and one of the officers even gave me a lighter as I left it in my house.
As soon as they told me no your free to go. I was up off my feet sitting criss cross. OK thank you bye.
