b. When, following the initial inquiry permissible under Terry, the officer establishes probable cause that the driver of the vehicle has weapons inside the vehicle
c. The Court held that such actions are an unconstitutional search under the Fourth Amendment since they require the officer to exceed the detention period permissible under Terry.
d. When a police officer obtains consent from the owner of the vehicle and conducts a search of the vehicle that is minimally intrusive
a. When a police officer possesses a reasonable belief that the suspect is potentially dangerous and may gain immediate control of weapons
