Police officers have to put in mind the fourth amendment when carrying out a traffic search. A vehicle without a warrant can only e searched when it has a defined case or go without the search warrant and if the driver offers a verbal reason. The Bible is the book of Matthew 5:9 says that “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.” Police officers are given the mandate to search, and this comes from God, who provides law enforcers authority; hence they should promote peace in the society. Police have to stop if it against the will of the driver and be careful when conducting the search. There is a court ruling that ensures police don‘t search individuals vehicles whenever they like.
