[cobra de capell]

It seems to me that even with nothing to hide, allowing some stranger, even a police officer, to search opens up the possibility, even if remote, that something can be planted. Yes, it's a little paranoid to think that way, but why even allow for that possibility? I'm thinking that most people are a little intimated by a police presence, so going along with 'reasonable' requests seems like the smart and natural thing to do. I say that allowing a search is a ticket to be treated badly – simply because if they have a lawful reason to search, they don't have to even ask.

Hands on the steering wheel is a good plan, along with the interior light on at night.
