Once again I have found myself embroiled in a " debate " with some guy that is throwing around the " your vehicle is an extension of your home " statement . I have always disagreed with this and have always asked for the other side to show me legal language to back up their position . So far I haven't gotten any . I understand that you enjoy most rights in your vehicle that you do at home but there are some limitations . Open container is the first one that comes to mind , but that's just an example . What about search and seizure ? Seems to work a little differently . So , am I wrong ? Any opinions ? Facts ?
