Re: Dallas Police Officer threatens to Revoke my license

Correction on search. If the officer asks and consent is denied, he may still search if he has probable cause and a valid exigent circumstance. In most cases, the fact that a car is mobile is enough of an exigent circumstance to justify a search without a warrant.

As for learning more, I suggest reading at the library on books on 4th Amendment issues for police. This is a subject that there are lots of long courses on, both for police and for lawyers.
