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.
Here are some of the main examples in which police or other law enforcement agencies do not need a search warrant to conduct a search: 1  Consent. 2  If the police show up at your door and ask you if they can come inside to search for drugs and you consent to the search, then the police do not need a warrant. 3  Emergency.
