Good night officer. I do not consent to any search or seizures. Can I be on my way?
After that it's up to the cop if he chooses to follow or break the constitution.
How do you handle the implied consent rebuttal? I have heard that by obtaing and signing for a drivers license you give consent to field sobriety checks and chemical checks. Granted, typically the laws are written so that the officer has to have reasonable suspicion...but that is at the mercy of the honesty of the officer. What i am also not sure of is whether or not this applies at a federal level, like a border patrol stop inside the united states
FreeKeene.com is a website about Keene, NH. There was recently a video posted there about a law they passed banning sobriety checkpoints, and the public testimony was pretty revealing about the kinds of arrests that were made.
Most arrests were made for other things. Cops had been seen measuring cars while they were stopped to find things like depth of tread on tires, or distance from the tailpipe to the ground - any excuse to ticket drivers.
