That seems to be probable cause to search, so I'd say yes. Although it depends on your state laws.

Can a cop search your car if you got pulled over for speeding?

Unless the officer discovered probable cause during the traffic stop (or had probable cause prior to), then no, the search was illegal. The officer would have needed to obtain probable cause to search the vehicle, in reference to Carroll v. United States. The prior answer referenced "Search Incident to Lawful Arrest" and that was incorrect. During a traffic stop for speeding, generally, no one is being arrested, and "Search Incident to Lawful Arrest" only allows the the officer to search for evidence related to the arrest, which for speeding, there wouldn't be any such evidence.

No. Unless you are being arrested or give the officer consent to search the car a simple traffic infraction alone does not give the right to search a vehicle.


Can a cop search your vehicle without consent in Florida and am I protected by Florida State Laws from a consentless search if I was pulled over for speeding or for other reasons?

A police officer must have either your consent, a warrent, or probable cause to search your vehicle - probable cause to search can include everything from a partially hidden weapon (gun), blood, body parts to just the cap of a alcohol container sticking up from a seat.


What if a cop makes up a probable cause to pull you over how can you prove that he had no probable cause?

Difficult and expensive to prove lack of probable cause. Probable cause can be anything from suspicious activity in the vehicle to weaving while driving or failure to signal. I am sure you could find a lawyer who would try but I am also sure the judge would eventually find for probable cause in the end.
