You sure you've seen how searches work? When they search, they search everything, including fast food bags. Cops know that hiding place and have seen it plenty of times. The only reason a cop might miss that would be if he himself were dumb or inattentive to standard search procedure.

That's why it's good advice to minimize car transport of weed as much as possible, like Skink said, and to make sure your car's up to code and you're obeying every traffic law perfectly so you don't get stopped in the first place. If a cop stops you and decides you look like the hundreds of weed-carrying stoner kids he's seen and arrested before, he'll use all his wily ways to do a search. You have to be very up on your game, both to avoid getting stopped and to avoid unwittingly consenting to a search.
