Word I wouldn't even let them search, especially even if they have no probable cause. Especially if I know I ain't got NOTHING & I'm in no hurry. Let em bring the d oh double g's. FTP

If you really have nothing, is it easier just to let them search rather bring the dog and risk damage to your car?

hell yah, i get that all the time. i had one cop stop me, made me get out, searched my whole car while i wait by his car, then came back and asked why i had a PS2 hooked up in the car and not a PS3 yet. What a clown. They do try, i'll give em' that, but yah, i feel you, don't stop me and ask me stuff like that if you don't smell it and didn't see me puffin' any smoke.

Yeah dude - I got stopped and they made me wait outside of my car for about 10 minutes and wait for a dog to come sniff my car.
They said I had something covering up my breath (was drinking a red bull at the time) and I had sprayed cologne to "hide something." I was just cruising, drinking a red bull and smelling like Chanel LOL
This was all in the rain too-I was soaked by the time they let me back in my car.
Great night for me.

out here in colorado they have stopped me a few times but always let me off with "thats a nice car" and then they just leave me alone... cops here though hate kids but no tickets yet and/or a search for me. the closest thing i had was 5 squad cars pull me over cuz i was drinking an A&W rootbeer.
then again all of you guys have a WAY nicer lookin GS then mine

oh god in cali its horrible, Ive been pulled over 4 times and searched.. They broke my cup holder and I still havent been reimbursed for it. You cant really tell them No they cant search it, because they can say anything for probable cause, you might as well let them instead of causing a fuss and getting a ticket for something stupid like tire pressure / stickers on your window. Theyll be more pissed off when u smile as you wave goodbye lol.

Opening the car door constitutes a search. The dog can sniff outside the car. If the dog hits on the car, that's a probable cause for an inside search. But even the outside sniff can be conducted after a cop develops a reasonable suspicion (less then 51% probability that a crime has been or is being committed). Don't be afraid to ask, "What is your reasonable suspicion is based on?"
Probable cause is 51% or more probability. Don't hesitate to tell, "No, you can't search my car." If you are told to get out of the car, ask, "Are you giving me a lawful order to exit the vehicle?". If the cop says yes, get out, after everything is done demand to get his name and call his supervisor. This is a serious 4th Ammendment violation.
Unfortunately, many cops don't know the search and seizure laws and abuse it left and right.

arnieosp- That is good to know thanks. I have been pulled over plenty of times in my GS for some of the most ridiculous things that always end up in a search. I'm always afraid to say no because 1) I'm young with a lexus(that i got cheap from a friend) 2) I have rims and tint and cops hate that out here for some reason.
edit: BTW i have an ES now that i commute in and i never get messed with. Old Lady's car FTW! LOL

Yo! How's the IS treatin ya? Did you ever get rid of the coilovers for the ES? Honestly i got pulled over twice in the ES but i cant even remember how much i got pulled over in the GS. Like it was just crazy, and half of the time it were two cops that would always pull me over....FTP foreal.
