It just the presumption switches to the cop because of that f__ked up decision. There is still unequal treatment under the law to consider for one. Right now though they have an absolute right to ask you to exit the car. You refuse to your own peril because it is a coin flip whether your civil rights will be validated via money damages. You could end up dead.

To think that putrid mass is sitting in Justice Marshall's seat. He had it right in his dissent, and we have been living through over forty years of police authoritarism since that decision by the Republican justices.
