[QUOTE="Brandi, post: 1814775, member: 24446"] I've never heard of an officer asking to search a vehicle unless he/she had some indication of drugs being in the car. Canines don't search for alcohol nor do departments send canine units out for giggles. It sounds likes someone isn't being truthful about their 'oh, I got pulled over and harassed by the cops' story which is pretty common. If you say no to having your vehicle searched then the assumption is that you have something to hide but this isn't done without cause, there's too much liability involved and no officer wants to be called before their supervisor and reamed for doing something stupid. However, if you say no then you just either wait for a canine or to be released after the officer is done. If you're calm and cooperative then the officer will most likely reflect that back and answer your questions. If you have a carload of drunken asshats being obnoxious the service might not be so nice. (I'm ex-leo) [/QUOTE]
