Yaroslav Sikorsky · Accepted Answer

**A search of a car can be carried out if the following grounds exist**:

* You committed an administrative offense;

* In case of detention;

* If your car contains signs indicating the commission of an offense;

* If there is a specific orientation (applies to cars whose license plates were recorded when an administrative offense was committed).

* On the basis of the decision of the investigative court;

* In urgent cases related to saving lives and property or direct pursuit of persons suspected of committing a crime.

Therefore, if the police did not have the above reasons for searching the car, then it is illegal.
