Cop provided a reason to pull over Heien's car (Even though one working light was legal in the State) then Heien waived her Fourth Amendment rights in consenting to a search.

If Heien did not consent to a search, she probably would have won her appeal of getting ticketed for the taillight (In fact that fine was probably waived anyway by the lower State appeals court, and upheld by the State Supreme Court, lol).

Let this be a lesson to everyone: Know your Constitutional protections.

Take another look at Roberts’ wording. That opens the door to other “reasons” to be ignorant of the law, especially by other people in power.

If anyone ought to be aware of the law, and keenly, it is a law enforcement officer. Otherwise such are promulgating the rule of man.
