reVehicle searches
i am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice.
in the US, if cops don’t have a warrant they have to have probable cause for an arrest, see an illegal item in plane view, or be in hot pursuit / in an emergency to search a vehicle.
they can also search a vehicle if they have consent. for the cops, silence is consent. so you have to state “I don’t consent to searches.” which may not stop them but could get a case thrown out later down the line.
even if they have a warrant or you think they have other legally legitimate reasons still state “i don’t consent to searches”
