What happens to your vehicle if you purchase drugs from the undercover officers?

The Police will generally tow the vehicle to protect it until your release. In most jurisdictions you can sign a waiver and have your vehicle left at the scene. However, sometimes this is not allowed because there is no legal place to park the vehicle or the area is too dangerous to leave the vehicle.\n\nThe police will not seize the car for these offenses. The police will only seize assets if the vehicle was used to transport drugs or bought using drug money.

none usually unless it was like a kilo of coke. If you are caught dealing maybe a month, if buying most likely not any time....\n\n lotta grey area there the law goes by "how much"............

In CA , if the police officer can develop probable cause, he can search your car. This was put in place due to the mobility of vehicles. They can simply drive away before you can get a search warrant.\n\nThe simplest example is the smell of pot. If the officer smells it, he can search anywhere in the car where the pot might be. Anywhere. \n\nAnother example is the plain sight rule. If the officer sees contraband in plain sight he can seize it and search your car for more. Anything else reasonably found during the search is also legally obtained.\n\nI don't know where the other posters got their information, but whether or not you are a minor has no bearing.\n\nAs for the cocaine issue, what crime did the driver get charged with? What are you talking about? If a passenger has drugs on them, it is possible that the driver could be charged for transportation of drugs. As for claiming they didn't know about the drugs, would it surprise you to know that people lie to the police??

yes they will show up and if it is an employer they probably will test for all drugs.  i think they all leave your system in three days so drink a lot of water(like a gallon a day at least).

Your question is a little vague.  What state did this happen in?  Are you (or are any of the occupants) of the vehicle on probation or parole?  Did you give permission for your vehicle to be searched?  Do you know why it was searched?  Were alcohol or drugs in the vehicle (or was there any indication that alcohol or drugs were in the vehicle?) When you say it was seized, are you referring to the police actually taking it away from you, or are you just saying it was seized while they searched it?  You ask what to do...depends on what happened.  Were you cited?  Arrested?  Was contraband of some kind found?  The issue of probable cause to search anything can often hinge on very small details...I'll suggest that you're going to have a difficult time finding cases that will assist you in getting an education.  You can try searching through FindLaw.Com and see where that gets you.  If nothing came of the search (nobody was arrested or cited or anything), then perhaps you want to consider complaining about the officer's action to his department.  If something came of it, and you're going to court, then you need to speak with an attorney.  I may be able to help you sort some of this out if you'd like, but we'd probably need to do that in email.  Post an address if you'd like...

Your local law enforcement organization would be happy to talk to you about this. Seek there advice.\n\nTrust me on this one.\n\nYour issue about working under the table shouldn't even come into question unless something illegal was going on. We've all had to work under the table at some point in our lives to make ends meet.\n\nWhatever you do, avoid lying about anything. Leaving a small item out is one thing, lying is entirely different.\n\nBut really, police officers, especially old school guys are happy to talk to guys seriously interested in joining the force.

This can vary greatly from state to state in the US.\n\nBut in many states, if there is drugs in the car, everyone in the car will be charged,  If one person confesses that the others did not know about it,  this can be used as evidence to help get the others off.  But it means you should not ride in cars with people you don't know, and if you know them, and they use or have drugs you don't ride with them.\n\nAs for open containers,  it is legal in our state to have open containers,

Selling drugs is enough trouble by itself. The fact that someone dies for the drugs he sells could lead to murder 2. What you should do, at all times, is to let the law enforcement agencies that you know that someone sells drugs.

Depends on the jurisdiction and the discretion of the arresting officer.\n\nSome agencies issue a summons, others incarcerate you, and some do both.  It also depends on how much pot you have on you.  Many people also neglect to think of the paraphernalia also, but you can be charged with that as well.  Remember also that if you drive while under the influence of drugs, you can be charged with a DWI(drugs) as well.\n\nDear Old Dad

Well, the fact that the vehicle was used for dealing drugs really doesn't help the fact that your motor is no good.\n\nYou need to take it to a certified place, like the local Nissan dealership for them to look at the problem. The mechanic may not have replace your motor at all, or the problem may not be in the old or new motor.  If you take it to a certified and ligitimate place for repairs and/or consultation about the problem and they are able to PROVE that the old mechanic did not do what he said he would do to fix the problem (since he obviously didn't since it is still smoking) then you can get a lawyer on the basis of fraud.  \n\nYou have to have proof to go against his work, and it is very important that you always take your vehicle to a certifited repair facility because they are always insured and bonded against their repairs if something goes wrong.  This guy probibly doesn't even have insurance on his own car, let alone the mechanic work.  You can still sue him though, even without him being (possibly) insured against repairs because he personally worked on it.  You can use the drug thing against his credibility.

It's illegal, period.  You use it, sell it, have it in your possession, etc, and get caught, you are going to prison.

Until the police find out if they are illegal in your area.

Don't know, but it can't be good. Got you in trouble once, and you get busted again? Time to leave the drugs alone for a while, don't you think? I hope not for your sake, but this time you just might have time to think it over.

some is destroyed.  some is used for stings to catch other drug dealers.  Some is put back on the street to rival dealers.  some is sold by corrupt cops.  there is no single answer.
