The Probable Cause Exception. Police may search a vehicle if there is probable cause to believe that the car contains evidence of criminal activity. For example, if a car interior smells like marijuana, the police can search the vehicle. Under this exception, the police can search the car trunk or containers where contraband could be found.
Once the car is impounded the police are allowed to conduct an inventory search of the car. This is for your protection so that none of your property is missing. However, it is only used by the police to search a car without a warrant. If the police find drugs in your car they do not have to return it and they are allowed to sale it at auction.
