why can they make everyone, other than the driver, produce ID?

Maryland V. Wilson and cases building on that.


Maryland v. Wilson says nothing about passenger ID. Got any cites for
cases "building on that"?

My son in law was telling me about it while he was in law school and
no I do not have all the citations but it was Wilson that opened the
door. It really gets down to what happens after the cop has everyone
with their hands on the car and their legs spread apart.
By then there will usually be a few of them there. None of them care
about your rights by then and it is your word against theirs about
consent to a search.
Cops will be the first ones to say a lot of, if not most, felony busts
come from a traffic stop, particularly drug charges.
What they don't tell you is it is the easiest way to profit from an
illegal wire tap or other inadmissible source of info. They certainly
don't just "get lucky" that often.
