新英格兰的警察可以搜查基于气味的车辆,但规则因州大麻法而不同。 Police in New England can search vehicles based on smells, but rules vary by state's marijuana laws.

在新英格兰州,警察可以搜查车辆的气味如大麻或酒精,但合法性因州而异。 In New England, police can search vehicles based on smells like marijuana or alcohol, but legality varies by state. 在娱乐性大麻是合法的州,如马萨诸塞州和缅因州,气味也许不能像新罕布什尔州那样轻易地证明搜查是正当的,因为那里只有医用大麻是合法的。 In states where recreational marijuana is legal, like Massachusetts and Maine, smells may not justify a search as easily as in New Hampshire, where only medical marijuana is legal. 酒精的气味,像破碎的酒瓶, 也可以导致搜索。 Alcohol smells, like a broken wine bottle, can also lead to searches. 在交通停留期间,即使基于嗅觉的搜查是否合法尚不明确,也要求遵守警察的要求。 Compliance with police requests is required during traffic stops, even if the legality of smell-based searches is unclear.
