The cops could also confiscate your car as well. This is another revenue for the local law enforcement from drugs. Bobby well that may be a close 2nd, but i could go to my bank and take out 10,000 dollars if i had it, go to buy a car. if i got stoped by a policeman who somehow knew i had the money, i could be accused of having the money to buy drugs and they could confiscate that money just on the accusation and keep it even after i got out of the drug charge. that is not due process, no, matter what the damn courts say. that is the war on drugs crap that goes on.
