    He said he needed to search my car, and I told him no. He told me he could call a judge and get a warrant, I told him that would be fine, and I remained seated on the curb. He went back to his car and was radioing back and forth a while, then came out and asked me again, I gave him the same answer.

    This process went on for nearly 2 hours, every 20 minutes or so he'd come back out and pressure me.

    Finally after about 2 hours, and knowing my girlfriends parents would be home soon I gave into him. He spent probably 30 minutes tearing my car apart to find nothing, which royally pissed him off.

    In the end he got in his car and left, I got no ticket, nothing.
    Knowing what I know now, I'd stick to my guns and if he detained me for that long I'd be calling someone... then submitting a very nicely worded written complaint to his superiors and local government.

    Yea, things are different now then they were. I was young and dumb at the time and didn't want to get busted with at my girlfriends house, mid afternoon when we were supposed to be in school. So after 2 hours, and with her parents on their way home I had to give in.

    Think how differently our youth would have been... if I knew then what I know now... Well let's just say there were a few traffic stops that would have gone down differently when I was a kid.
