OK a bit off topic but sort of related question.

Officer Fife stops you for speed. Says 'I need to see in your car, I can get a warrant.' Based on what?

I know state laws vary, but sounds like harrassment to me. 'Let me look in your car for no particular reason or I'll detain you here all afternoon.'

And what about when cops ask (again, based on nothing in particular) 'got any guns, drugs, hand grenades in your car?', you say 'No?!' and they ask 'mind if I look?' When is it your right to tell them to FO and go away? You stopped me for speed, you gave me a ticket. Am I under arrest for something or what?

Any LEO's or lawyers out there wanna take a swing at this?
