During which type of search is a vehicle physically inspected for contraband?

  1. Metal detection

  2. Strip search

  3. Body cavity search

  4. Vehicle search

The correct answer is: Vehicle search

A vehicle search is specifically designed to physically inspect a vehicle for contraband, which includes weapons, drugs, or other illegal materials. This type of search can be conducted by law enforcement or corrections personnel as part of security protocols. The procedure involves examining all areas of the vehicle, including the trunk, under the seats, and in hidden compartments, to ensure that nothing harmful is brought into a secure environment. In contrast, the other types of searches listed pertain to individuals rather than vehicles. For example, a metal detection typically involves the use of equipment to scan individuals for metallic objects but does not encompass a thorough physical inspection of a vehicle. A strip search involves the removal of clothing to check for concealed items on the person's body, while a body cavity search involves a more invasive examination of body cavities. Therefore, these other search types are not suited for the context of inspecting vehicles.
