The cops say my car smells like marijuana. Can they search my car?

If the cops say that your car smells like weed, it does give them probable cause to search your car. By saying that they smell illegal drugs coming from your car, it gives them a right to search the area of the car that those drugs may be in. So, they are allowed to search your car if they say that it smells like weed.
