Whenever a police officer asks for permission to search, politely refuse and clearly state “I am not consenting to any searches of myself or my vehicle…..most of the time the officer is going to say something like “well if you have nothing to hide, what are you worried about?” You ARE NOT required to give them an answer, but I’ve found that one response that tends to “disarm” them and get a laugh out of them is “sir/ma’am….I just started dating a really hot defense attorney and he/she is never going to let me get any if they find out that I consented to a search”

The question “Would you mind if I searched your vehicle?” is loaded. Generally speaking, you would say “no” to a request to search your car. When the question is phrased “would you…”, the answer “no” actual GRANTS them permission to search. The proper answer is always “I do not give permission to search my car”. There is no ambiguity in that statement.

Especially the cop when I was 16 or 17 and after I said "I'd rather not" he asks "well why don't you want me to". I personally wish it would be against the law for them to ask, and only able to when they have probable cause.

When I was a kid, a friend and I got pulled over in by the MSP. Claimed my tags were out of date for the excuse for the stop. However almost immediately they required us to exit my truck and proceeded to interrogate us for no reason. Then proceeded to ask me over and over if I would consent to my truck being searched and he told me that we weren't going to get let go until I consented. Being a stupid kid I didn't know any better and allowed him and his partner to search. The search yielded nothing and magically the tags on my truck came back valid after they were done going through everything. I learned my lesson and never let them search anything or cooperate in any capacity that you aren't required to by law.

[@RicardoRoams]

When I was young I got pulled over with a friend who was riding with me. I was pulled over for having a tail light out. I had replaced the light a week prior. But there was a short in my wiring and it was out again and I didn't know it. As I pulled over I found myself on the edge for some railroad tracks. I continued to pull a little farther for safe clearance. When the cop came up to my door he asked me why I didn't stop right away. I pointed out the obvious which he refused to believe. He accused my friend of opening the door and throwing something in the gutter. That was his probable cause and he order us both out of the car. They did not cuff us but had us sit on the curb. They tore my whole car apart, including my back seat. I had a VW beetle and the seat came out to access the battery. Everything in my car was spread out on the sidewalk. Fortunately, I've always kept a clean car and there wasn't much. They were finally satisfied and gave me a warning about my tail light and drove off. I had to put everything back myself, of course. These cops clearly lied. My friend never opened the door. They used it as an excuse to search the car and us. We had no drugs on us. That was the start of my education of my rights when I'm pulled over by the police.

As a former prosecutor AND defense atty, if you have a CCW and properly announce it, politely and safely, to the officer pulling you over, you can also politely and safely decline the search. I will add, it is an awkward position, but there is no reason to consent. Like pleading the 5th, there is no conclusion to be jumped to from the invocation of the right. To decline the search request means nothing except that you have declined.

[@meritholdingllc123]

"That doesn't make them bad." No, if a cop is asking permission to search your vehicle, with no probable cause, yes, that does make them bad. They have no reason to search or request a search unless they are indeed fishing for a crime. This makes them bad people, even if you think it makes them good cops.

[@mostlypeacefulmisterputin]

Correction, if they are asking for permission they are already “fishing for a crime”, when they have reasonable suspicion/probable cause that a crime was committed and they believe that you committed that crime, they WILL NOT ask for your consent! If they’re asking for consent that means they know that they have no legal basis to search without it!!! Just remember…..you CANNOT talk yourself out of being arrested, but you CAN very easily talk yourself INTO being arrested!!

[@a-a-ronbrowser1486]

[@michaelroach2959]

Making up or exaggerating probable cause would make them bad. Anything that happens with consent is completely within the law and the constitution. There's nothing bad about fishing for a crime when it's literally a police officer's job to stop and prevent crime. If you think they're bad fishermen, that's something to take up with your local law enforcement agency, but officers ask for consent to search people and vehicles because it's far more effective than you might expect.

Many times the officer phrases the 'can I search your vehicle' in such a way that it is unclear (in that moment) whether the proper answer is yes or no. For example: - "You won't mind if I search your vehicle." - "You don't have anything to hide, so I can search your car, right?" I believe officers are even trained on how to ask compound questions to obtain the response they're looking for. I'm not a lawyer, but from what I've learned, once you grant them permission to search the vehicle, you can not rescind that permission. (Unlike the 5th amendment you can invoke at any time)

I was thinking the same thing. Seeing an empty holster and some rounds is not probable cause for anything, let alone going off the deep end panic. If a person had a holster and was carrying a gun, I'd say the odds of that gun being in a pocket or waistband are very low. If you are responsible enough to buy a holster, you are very likely to use a holster. I see no justification for the cops reaction. I expect Kevin, as a cop, likewise did nothing otherwise to raise suspicion. This cop overreacted, plain and simple. There was no legitimate reason for Kevin to be detained any longer than it took to address the alleged traffic violation.

In 2012 traveled from Texas to Michigan to see relatives. Stopped in Illinois for burned out license plate light by highway patrol. Patrolman asked if he could search car. I said no. He said everyone from Texas has guns in their car. He asked me to get out of car. Placed me in the rear of patrol car. Then he called in a K-9 unit. Two hours later nothing was found. I continued my drive to Michigan. Being detained for two hours seems very unreasonable and being from Texas it was assumed I had a gun in the car; also unreasonable. Best lesson learned is to not travel through Illinois because your rights will be violated is stopped by police. If I had a gun in the car, I would still be in jail in that state.

[@13BGunBunny]

How To Talk To The Police When Pulled Over: 01. As soon as you see the cherries and berries, turn on your hazard lights and pull over as soon as is safely possible. A parking lot or under a street light (if it's dark) is a good place. If it's dark, turn on your interior lights. 02. Keep your seat belt on and place your hands on the steering wheel. The Police like to be able to see your hands so that they are assured that you are no threat to them. 03. ALWAYS film the Police. You have a camera on your cell phone. Use it! It will be an unbiased witness if things go south. 04. Inform the officer right away if you have any firearms in the vehicle. Nobody wants to suddenly see the business end of his firearm when he starts yelling "GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE NOW!!" into your face. 05. Always be polite and respectful, even if you can't stand the Police. An attitude will never serve you in any positive manner. Using "Please" and "Thank you" will go a long way towards a positive outcome. 06. Never answer any questions. Politely and clearly inform them that you do not answer quests by saying "Sir, I do not answer questions". Repeat that statement every time that they ask a question. _Anything that you say can and sometimes will be used against you in a court of law._ The Fifth Amendment is your friend. Use it and shut up. 07. If you have to reach for anything (wallet, etc), tell the Officer where your driver's license, insurance and/or registration is and that you're reaching for it. Release your seat belt at that time if necessary. 08. Never consent to a search. Politely and clearly say, "Sir, I do not consent to a search of myself and/or my property" when asked. The Fourth Amendment is your friend. Use it. Why should you have to prove your innocence? 09. Never argue with the Officer no matter how right you think that you may be. The side of the road is no place for a debate. Accept the ticket then contest it in Court instead. 10. NEVER PHYSICALLY RESIST if they decide to go hands-on with you. Follow these basic rules and most likely you will be let off with just a verbal warning.

It is best not to say "yeh search my car". In my youth I was once stopped by a policeman walking back to my car in the town where I went to university. It was evening and dark out. He stops me and then asks to search the car and me. I didn't know what their beef was, I'd never been in trouble, and hadn't done anything, so being a dumb naive kid I figured the best way to get rid of them what to say "search away" and show I had nothing to hide. Big mistake. They found every item in the car suspicious, from the tire jack in the footwell ("why wasn't it in the Trunk?" they wanted to know - well, I'd had to fix a flat the day before and never bothered to put it back) to the tools and bike parts in the back seat ("are those burglary tools?" - no, officer, I repair bicycles as a hobby and always have tools everywhere) to my pocket knife ("is that a weapon?" - no officer I use it for opening boxes at work). They had me there for easily an hour going through every darn thing before they let me go. I only later found out there'd been burglaries in the area and they were suspicious of anyone. Lesson learned don't let cops search your car or you unless you have a lot of time to kill, you could be there a while. It could be worse, I wasn't into shooting back then, nowadays I've always got a bow or gun somewhere in the car lol.

Most of the time nothing is found and the owner has to pay the tow and storage to get his car back.

[@andycraddock7677]

Thank you Kevin for today’s interesting presentation. You raised many good points and gave some cogent advice on how NOT to get shot during a routine traffic stop. I would respectfully disagree with you- and agree with your attorney colleague- that the mere presence of ammunition or a holster or just about anything firearm-related gives rise to reasonable suspicion, allowing or legally permitting LE to thence lawfully detain a driver and search the vehicle. I can think of dozens of scenarios where firearm-related accoutrement present in a vehicle is perfectly legal, innocuous and the driver, passenger, owner of the items has done nothing wrong and no laws have been violated. While I can appreciate that seeing ammunition in plain view in an automobile is a legitimate reason for the officer to have perhaps heightened concerns for officer safety, the fact stands that driving home or to the range or to MOST places with ammo is an everyday occurrence for thousands of drivers and if a LEO pulled his/her duty weapon on me following a traffic stop simply because I was returning from the gun store, range etc. I’d have a big problem with that. I would comply with the officer’s commands cause I don’t wanna get shot, but such behavior by LE would be highly questionable from a legal perspective absent other, plain-view evidence. I would appreciate (because you used the term several times in this video alone) doing a stand-alone piece on the legal distinction between “reasonable suspicion” and “probable cause” because they of course are related yet different legal standards, not equivalent or interchangeable, and the distinction between the two is important and warrants further discussion. Thank you again for this excellent video. A very Happy Holidays to you, crew and the folks at USCCA.

“You will be able to remedy that in court.” Perhaps not. The cops have a handle tool called qualified immunity. Unfortunately, a lot of violations fall under qualified immunity.

[@Yeahyeah116]

For every 10 people that mention qualified immunity, 1 or 2 know what it really means. Qualified immunity protects, in some circumstances, individual officers from being sued civilly. It does not protect the agency. That’s who you really want to sue anyway, because the remedy in a civil suit is money…something very few police officers have but cities, counties and states do. You can have a discussion about whether or not police officers should have this protection or not but from the citizen’s perspective, qualified immunity doesn’t have any meaningful impact on your ability to pursue a remedy.
