LW1 Getting Stopped by the Police

Post author By WKNC Admin
Post date July 8, 2016

What are the rights of an individual stopped by the police while driving? Can you refuse a search? How long are they allowed to keep you? Do you have to exit your vehicle?

If you’ve ever wondered what the answers to these or more questions are, listen to the new podcast from WKNC 88.1 FM, Legal Werk. Coleen Kinen-Ferguson, podcast manager for WKNC, sits down with NC State University’s Student Legal Services to better learn the law.

Watch episode one now and learn all about your rights, and the rights of a police officer, when they pull you over or stop you.

Listen here.
