Virginia and West Virginia police have a reputation not only for being sticklers on the law but for being incredible assholes. Be careful driving through these two states because they very rarely will have any mercy on you.

How it is that some of these people (cops) ever get to hold a position of power is beyond me. That’s why it’s good to know your rights!

Would this situation have turned out differently if there were a woman denying him to search the vehicle? It’s difficult to know what to do when the police intimidate by acting like complete and utter loose cannons.

What if I refuse, but police search me anyway?

Has anyone else ever experienced or witnessed a police interaction like this?
