Roger that. But, once the warrant is obtained (how long have you been by the side of the road waiting?) is “something” found that can escalate the encounter? And you know damned well that there was nothing in the vehicle.

Yeah, that’s definitely in the realm of possibility. I tend to think that if they really don’t have cause/suspicion to search your vehicle, they’ll more than likely just tell you “okay, have a good night.”
I think with most law enforcement (there are exceptions!), a little courtesy and respect go a long way. I’m not saying we have to be boot lickers, but just common courtesy and respect. I’ve avoided at least 2 tickets by doing this.
