Good that you didn't let them search your car at all....next time just say " what is your reason for probable cause to search my vehicle ? " no response, thank you, can i be on my way now ..that'll really piss them off... only thing they can do is pat you down for their safety and thats all...
Alot of people think when you say yes, it will be a quick 2 min search..yeah right, they will go through the whole god damn car, trunk....
luckily i knew enough about the law to never let a cop search my vehicle....remember during one winter the time i picked up my brother working at the mall at 10pm...k9 cop follows us in the mall and pulls us over in my bro's Toy FX16 corolla tinted black....
cop says i stopped you cause your tint is too dark.. (no shit, its 10pm at night)..then measures with a device to so its illegal....okay Defective equipment ticket..
then sees a charger plugged in.. whats that, is that a radar detector i see.. no, its for my cell phone, charger to charge my cell phone.. did have a detector under the seat...
then asks any weapons/drugs in the vehicle...can i search... i say nope.(even though both of us have our glocks in our waist band....legal too, ccw holder...responsds just a quick search, nothing to hide ?? ask him whats your probable cause ...didn't have a reason... i say, can i go now.. he was pissed as well as his 2 backups...
overheard the k9 cop say, they won't let me search, asked for probable cause and tint isn't a reason...they (2 backup)were like what..why'd you call us to back you up for...muahhahahha as we drove out of the mall parking lot.
