If the arrestee thinks that the search is unreasonable despite the law, he can ask a court to declare the law unconstitutional, either generally or as applied to him in the particular case.

Whatever happened to simply being able to opt out?

I mentioned the opt out option as a means of avoiding any potential Fourth Amendment problems, alhtough I don't think that the Fourth Amendment is, in fact, a problem, i.e. I was speaking hypothetically, not categorically.
