I suppose cops never do this either:The handlers dont carry illegal drugs to fool the dogs, and the dogs are walked around the outside of the car, if the dog indicated on your door it would be the closest door to the illegal substance.

Saying that police NEVER frame innocent people or invent evidence is just as much of a lie as saying they ALWAYS do.
Memorize:
When the police stop you they are NOT your friends.
NEVER consent to ANYTHING.
Provide whatever verbal or written (driver's license, insurance, registration, CCW credential, etc.) ID is REQUIRED by LAW. Do NOT provide anything NOT required BY LAW.
"Am I free to leave officer?"
"No? I have nothing further to say without my lawyer present."
Keep your mouth SHUT until you have a lawyer present.
Cops not only lie, they are allowed BY LAW to lie when questioning a suspect... whether he KNOWS he's a suspect or not.
Unless you've got so much experience with the cops that you can unerringly tell whether you're a suspect or are being lied to, just keep your mouth shut and don't consent to ANYTHING.
