ROFL yeah right.

one law for them and anotherone for us.

I wasn't, dork. one was a small town speed trap and the other was a rookie claiming "defective exhaust". Both of them just excuses to search and be a hero.

hey skip when you got pulled ver did you look suspect?

If there's pot smoke rolling out the windows they're going to arrest you. Then they have the right to search your car whether you like it or not.

I looked suspiciously like an old man in a van going to work. (Ladders on top of van) Both daytime, one around noon.

Here's what you do:

When you get pulled over, you let them, knowing that you don't have drugs in your car. If you make their life hell then they'll just arrest you, impound your car, and then all bets are off as to how much weed they're going to find in that car.

Anybody ever hear that statistic that damn near half the drugs that are seized never make it to the evidence room? Where you think that s**t winds up?

They smoke it themselves or sell it.

i once had my truck searched. earlier in the day wed been shooting guns and id left all the ammo in the truck.

fiocci makes a clear shotshell case that apparently the cops use.

so tuff cop asks me in that mother on the fritz tone. WHERE DID YOU GET THESE! DID YOU STEAL THESE FROM A COP?

no i said i bought them at consumers hardware.

just before we got pulled over though i pitched my shit,how they didnt see it i dont know.....

in the hands of ex-outlaws turned lawdog.

****ing worst of the worst.

I've been pulled over and/or ticketed at least 20 times in my life, and at no time, even was I was young, has a cop ever asked to search my car.

Perhaps there's something to be said for keeping one's car clean, and not looking like a fucking dirtbag.

who you calling a dirtbag?:hmmm:

I'm smoking K-town.

I'm not calling anybody a dirtbag. I'm just postulating a theory.

There's validity to that theory. When I've been pulled over alone in my tan, clean camry, I've never been asked for a search. Now my friends that drive music beatin' caddies or sticker covered saturns haven't had the same luck. I'm not saying one deserves to get searched if you drive a van with bad exhaust, but don't be surprised by it. And driving in small towns with contraband that you can't hide well is a bad idea.

I'm all for denying a search if you think they'll bust you, but be ready to spend time waiting on them to find a way to search anyway. But at least you can fight the legallity of that search.

The best advice I can give is carry a small amount and have a good place to hide it. There has to be some place where they won't look. Then, at least you have a chance of getting through a search.

And also, through the entire encounter, be totally respectful and be as cool as ice. Cussing or developing a stutter aren't good signs.
