Would a police office require a search warrant for checking your pupils?

Pot doesn't affect your pupils AFAIK, just the whitespace around your eyes.

Yeah, It does.

It doesen't make them necessarily bigger or smaller, but it effects their reaction to light.. which is enough for a cop to charge you with DUII.

As for public intox, don't worry about it.

from what ive been told, if you come across a dui checkpoint or something, when the officer flashes his light in your face, he gets his answer to whether you were drinking or not. supposedly when you drink, veins or the skin-tone of your eyelids slightly change, they become darker, and thats how officers can tell if youve been drinking or not. theyre flashlights somehow make it show up. that right there would give them reason for probable cause and ask to check your pupils afterwards. if anyone can shed any more light on the flashlights and the eylid theory, id love to hear it. its been awhile since i was told about it, so my facts are a bit sketchy.

Well, a lot of people have red and watery eyes while they drink. Another thing is that there is a BAC test that you think is a small flashlight. You think he is shining it in your eyes but he is really holding it near your mouth to get your BAC.

Are you saying that they are trying to get your BAC without your knowledge. That seems like a big no no considering you can deny taking a breathalizer.

I will have to look in my Gall's magazine for more info, but that is EXACTLY what it is trying to do.
