Cop: "Can I search your car?"

Cop stops you for some bogus traffic violation. asks if he can search your car. even tho the car is clean, you say no because you dont feel like having it searched.

he calls for a k9 unit to sniff the outside of your car for drugs.

k9 unit arrives. k9 scratches the trunk area. bingo... probably cause. they search your car.

in the future, just say yes if the cop wants to search your car. it saves time. (the k9 is trained to scratch the trunk area every time :Q :| )

When I had long hair, the drug dog "showed interest in me" (according to the DEA officer on an Amtrak from Vancouver to Seattle). I had nothing on me.

Maybe your clothes smelled like weed from that bong hit you took the day before?

I smoked a cigar once in my dress shirt and had it cleaned and pressed at the cleaners and the next time I wore it I could still smell a hint of cigar in the shirt.

Would have to be from 7 days before, but I guess it's possible.
 
I still tell them no, I roll up the windows and wait by the car. No I dont carry drugs in my car and yes the cops can fuck off if they want to search my shit.

If i did have drugs, I would tell them its ok to search, but those days are behind me.

If we give up early and often they will only press the boundary. If everyone lets every cop search their cars without reason, your person and your house are next. draw the line. say no every time, guilty or not.

So the moral of your story is that you should never stand up for your rights?

See I kinda like my rights that protect me from unlawful search.
 
While I don't know anything about dogs trained to scratch your car each time, I will say that there's a huge difference between your rights and convenience. Even though we all know we can assert our rights (ie not answering questions unless we are under arrest or not inviting cops into your house), usually they will make your life a lot more difficult if you say no. I think that's one of the big problems with law enforcement. They use this to prey on innocent people. "Do you want to get to your interview on time? Let me search your car. Otherwise I have all day ..."
 
Then tell them no, you can't search. But also realize that the majority of guns and drugs (not your stupid .4g of weed) pulled off the streets are from searching "bogus traffic" stops.

And what was bogus about the stop? People don't realize just how many laws/regulations there are for driving; its not just speeding and running reds.
 
I will always say no, whether carrying or not. if they have to ask they shouldnt be doing it. if they have a lawful reason to, they will have you get out and search it without asking.
 
"license and registration?
step out of the car.
you carrying a weapon on you?
I know a lot of you are.

I ain't steppin outta shit
all my paper's legit

well do you mind if I look around the car a lil bit?

my glove compartment's locked
and so's the trunk in back
I know my rights
So your going to need a warrant for that

well aren't you sharp as a tack
what are you?
you some type of lawyer or sumthin?
you think your someone important or sumthin?

I ain't passed the bar, but I know a lil bit
enough to know that you wanna illegally search my shit

yeah, well we'll see how smart you are when the K9 comes

I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one."
 
I've been illegally searched without any consent, or even notification at that.

Cop comes out of nowhere and pulls me over.
He immediately asks me if I've been smoking weed or drinking. The only suspicion he could've had was that I looked like a teen and drove a sports car(miata), as I neither smoked nor drank.
After looking over my registration and ID, he tells me to get out of the car.
He grabs my hands and holds them tightly behind my back and he patted me down.
He then proceeded to put me in the back of his car, with my hands on the railing, as he thoroughly dug through my car.
After his failure to find anything to hold me against, and sees that my record is clean, he lets me go.
I drive off.
And here is where the really fvcked up part comes in.
He pulls me over again a block later, and tells me if I remembered to pick my credit card off from my trunk. My credit card was in my wallet that was on the passenger seat, WHY THE FUCK DID HE TAKE IT OUT, and the proceed to give a sob story on how he left it on the trunk?

I'll let you decide on that one. Needless to say, I cancelled my credit card as soon as I got home.

lol I was waiting for someone to post this.
 
not positive, but I am pretty sure (from the ACLU vid I once watched) that they need probable cause to bring in a canine unit. Even if they found something it could get thrown out (depending on the judge).
