What is the test for a search warrant for a vehicle search?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Dickson, 144 Cal.App.3d 1046, 192 Cal.Rptr. 897 (Cal. App. 1983):
" 'No suspect was fleeing or likely to take flight. The search was of permanent premises, not of a movable vehicle. No evidence or contraband was threatened with removal or destruction, except perhaps the fumes which we suppose in time would disappear.' " (365 U.S. at p. 615, 81 S.Ct. at p. 779, quoting Johnson v. United States, supra, 333 U.S. at p. 15, 68 S.Ct. at p. 369.)
