Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Inventory searches of vehicles are valid but must follow departmental rules. An inventory search is conducted when a vehicle is impounded to protect the owner's property, to protect the police against false claims of loss or theft, and to protect the police from potential danger. Evidentiary, contraband, and drug searches all require probable cause and a search warrant or valid exception to the warrant requirement.
