What should you do? In a previous video, we discussed the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution, what a search warrant is and the most common exception to its requirement: consent. Are you arrested? You weren’t given any Miranda warnings. He doesn’t like your attitude and puts you in the back of his car. He sees you have a license or permit to carry a concealed weapon and starts rifling through your truck, looking for your gun.Įven though the officer realizes you aren’t the robber, he finds the gun and accuses you of carrying it or transporting it illegally.
The officer orders you out of the car, demands your ID, and immediately handcuffs you. Unbeknownst to you, a pickup truck with the same color and model as yours was just used in an armed robbery in the parking lot of a nearby grocery store. You roll down your windows, turn on the interior car lights, place your hands on the steering wheel, and wait for the officer. You slow down and pull over and the officer follows suit.
Was I speeding? Maybe he’s going to go around me. Your stomach drops as you look down to the dashboard. You’re driving home after a nice dinner and you see those red, white, and blue lamps light up behind you.
