The officer has the right to demand you step out of the vehicle. If he asks you to step out, lock the doors before doing so. He has the right to frisk you for his own safety. He does not have the right to conduct a warrantless search of your locked, unoccupied vehicle without your consent.
Interesting.

Excuse me if I am wrong, but I thought that one of the conditions of being liscensed and having a CHL was that you basically gave up the right to say no to a search.

Maybe I got bad info at one of my training classes but again if this is wrong, I would like to have the correct information for future stops. Not that I would have a problem, I have been stopped a few times and no officer has ever asked to search my vehicle or given me an actual ticket.

I would just like clarification on CHL's and whether we can still refuse a search.
