In U.S. v. Robinson (1973), the police had stopped the defendant for driving with a revoked driver's permit. SCOTUS's ruling with respect to the legality of the search of the defendant is important, because it held that:
 
  a. a search incident to arrest may be conducted only where there is probable cause that the arrestee has weapons or evidence on his or her person.
  b. a search incident to arrest may be conducted only where there is reasonable suspicion.
 c. a search incident to a full custody arrest may be conducted regardless of the likelihood of finding weapons or evidence on the arrestee's person.
  d. a search may not be conducted incident to an arrest for a traffic offense.
