Default RE: Why I Lost Respect The PGC

WRONG as sproul says.
A cop is not allowed to search your vehicle for drugs without a warrant. Cops can not have random traffic stops just to check your car for drugs. What world do you live in. That is the problem with people today. News propaganda. They here it enough they think it is legal. Well it is not legal. People are brain washed from the news and TV. Same as hunting big bucks in PA. Where could of that came from? TV shows. What is the real world? Some have no clue from all the garbage they read and watch on TV. That is the truth.
Partly true.WCO's cops etcdon't have the right to search your vehicle in the absence of permission, a warrant or probable cause.

With cops, probable cause or permission accounts for most traffic stop searches. Many people simply give permission hoping(A) not to appear guilty and(B) that the cop wont findanything. If a cop suspects drugs and sees a roach in the ashtray, bam! Probable cause has been established. If a cop suspects drugs and calls in the k-9 unit and the dog reacts to the car, same story!

Similarly, if a WCO stops apickup or car at night and sees fresh blood and deer hair on the back bumper, probable cause has just been established.
