Why were the police doing such a thorough search for a speeding ticket?

Doesn't say...also doesn't answer my question...

Let's say they smelled pot, searched the car and found a stash in glove box. Who gets arrested if no one claims ownership?

I honestly don't know. Perhaps the driver/owner, if anyone? But what bothers me the most is that passengers in a car -- people who generally have no say or stake in what's in the glove compartment -- are being hauled off to jail for what's hidden in someone else's car.

Wouldn't it be assumedn that the driver is reponoskible for what is in the glove compartment?

The driver of the car, of course. You couldn't figure that out? Don't feel bad; neither could the Supreme Court, and they should know better.
