The Court held that the search-incident-to-arrest exception to the Fourth Amendment's warrant requirement justified the search in this case.

C. The Court held that the search-incident-to-arrest exception to the Fourth Amendment's warrant requirement did NOT justify the search in this case because the arrestee was not within reaching distance of the passenger compartment at the time of the search.
D. The Court held that the driving with a suspended license and drug trafficking are inherently linked and as such, the search in this case was lawful.
