Ironically, yes. I have a friend who "rented" out her home to someone who never paid rent. The "rentee" then accused the real owner of harassment, called the cops, basically had "squatter's rights" since she was given a key and invited in. She claimed the owner, (my friend) was a threat - NOT- and filed a restraining order on the owner of the condo; So the owner cannot be anywhere near her own home. Crazy, huh?

∙ 12y agoThe only way in which a cop could arrest you in your own home for DUI would be, for example: Outside in the street, the cop was chasing you because he suspected you were driving DUI. He stopped you, you agreed to a DUI test, and the test proved that you were, in fact, driving DUI.
While he was returning to his vehicle, you took off at the speed of light to get away from him. He was still looking for you when you managed to get into your house. He then followed you into our house, and since he'd already tested you, he arrested you on the spot for DUI, even though you were home. An unlikely and unusual case.

∙ 11y agoYes. There would have to be some reasonable suspicion, just as with any other traffic stop, but there's no specially immunity for being stopped just because you are outside your house.

Is the playing of loud music grounds for a car search?
No, loud music does not establish probable cause to search your car. Unless the cop has a warrant or your permission to look through the car, the search is illegal. Always remember, if a cop says, "Do you mind if I take a look through the car?" or something like that, it means he doesn't have the right to search your car without your permission, so you should always say, "no." Saying "no" doesn't give him the right to search the car. It means he can't.
