My question :interrobang:

Can a cop search my car without a warrant?

I have received contradictory information and want to better understand my rights. What situations allow police enforcement to legitimately search my automobile, and what choices do I have if I believe my rights were violated during the search?

Thanks in advance!

If the cops search your automobile without a warrant, your permission, or a legitimate reason, they are violating your constitutional rights. However, in rare cases, police can search a car without a warrant or your agreement.
