In Ohio you can be arrested for having a compartment in your vehicle that police think might be able to contain drugs, even if it has nothing to do with drugs. This is not just one of those stupid laws on the books that nobody pays attention to. Instead, this is a law passed in 2012 that was enforced for the first time with an arrest in late November 2013.
Several states have passed ‘secret compartment’ laws that state you can be arrested simply for having a compartment in your car – even if there is nothing in it.

It’s begining to sound like this society we have today has already went to hell in a hand basket ! (^^^)

This is SO WRONG…
what if you buy a used car and it has a secret compartment that you didn’t know even existed?
This is 100% real and it is in Ohio. You will be charged as decoy for drug runners.
what a stupid $#%&!@*ing law….
Another Invasion of Privacy.
IN NYC, the Diamond dealers have secret compartments ‘cuz they travel w/ 500k in jewels, they gonna get arrested as well. ?
quite a few Renaults and some other cars come with hidden compartments as standard.. does this law make it illegal to sell those cars ?
