Some guy in high school told me that they did, and that one time he got pulled over and they were going to search his car but he said "I do not consent the search of my vehicle." and they backed off, but like is that true?
Yes, they need a warrant subject to exceptions. The only reason they ask to search is because they don't have the authority and need the driver to agree to the search and waive his rights.
