Questions presented: Whether law enforcement officers' exploratory search of the interior of Petitioner's vehicle, after arresting him beyond "reaching distance" from the vehicle, violated the Fourth Amendment's search-incident-to-arrest doctrine. Whether this Court--consistent with the suggestions of several of its justices--should reconsider its holding in New York v. Belton, 453 U.S. 454 (1981), at least to the extent it entitles officers to conduct exploratory searches of vehicles' interiors incident to arrests for nothing more than traffic violations.
