Traffic Stop Rights Alabama

Summary

During a traffic stop in Alabama, police officers can ask you to roll down your window, which is generally within their authority and not a Fourth Amendment violation. You have the right to remain silent, refuse a search without a warrant or probable cause, and record the encounter if it doesnt interfere with the officers duties. Officers need reasonable suspicion to stop you and probable cause to search your vehicle.
