Yes, the police may search your car without a warrant or your permission if s/he has "reasonable suspicion." This means that an experienced police officer had reasonable suspicions to search you or your car, he may and any evidence found in the search may be used in court. This is a much more lenient standard than "probable cause," needed for a warrant, because policemen are in great danger whenever they pull someone over. This more lenient guideline was established by the Supreme Court Case of Terry v.Ohio.

Can cops search your house without a warrant?

Under most circumstances, no. The police usually need a warrant to search your house, car, property, etc. However, there are some cases in which the rule can be bent. If you are being arrested, the police may search you and your property for weapons or other accomplices for their own safety. If the police already have permission to be on your property, and they see some form of evidence that is clearly visible, they have the right to lawfully seize it. If the person who is in control of the property gives consent to the police, they may search it.
