Trucker too

ALthough many do not know their rights, A Few do. Most Highway patrol officers will tell you that if you do not consent to a search, they will place you under arrest and do the search anyway. It is not just a matter of policy, it is a matter of training, and yes, of EGO. ie, I've GOT A BADGE, AND I WILL USE IT AND YOU CAN JUST SUFFER THROUGH IT.

For a trucker, the rig is their HOME.

By the way, if you possess and present sovereign ID, most will use THAT as a pretext for search. Thanks to the FBI Flyer that really did get circulated listing folks using the constitution as domestic terror suspects.
