Could a cop search you if...

If you give them probable cause they can. If you are being an asshole then yea they will because you are giving them a reason to fuck with you. ;) "Just be cool man" ;)

At least that has been my experience. I have invited cops to have a beer or a joint with me when they get off their shift. Lots of the time they come and still have their uniforms on! :thumbsup:

That is bullshit. Have you ever heard of Probable Cause? Yes, it's a police clause that states that if the police do a visual search of your vehicle and see a gun under the seat or on the seat, see drugs, or smell the profound smell of marijuana, he can search your CAR. But to search YOU, he has to ask unless you STINK of ganja.

I couldn't have said it any better myself. In the USA, if the cop has probable cause (reasonable suspicion a crime is taking place), your car can get searched. If they don't have probable cause, they need your consent.

Basically, if they ask for consent, you can (and probably should) say no. It's a right. They dont ask for consent unless they can't find probable cause.

Be safe and stash your weed in your socks. Counts as undergarments here (UK) so they can't search them.
