My question involves a traffic citation from the state of:Ohio I was pulled over for failure to use a turn signal while making a turn. Long story short when they made the stop I was pulling into my private driveway. The officer told me I had the wrong tags on my vehicle and he was going to have it impounded. So he gave me a ticket for not signaling and fictitious registration. He then proceeded to search my car and called for a tow truck. Minutes later my car was gone and everything in it had been gone through. Question, is it lawfull for an official to search and impound a vehicle right out of your own yard?
