Michael, sorry for the delay in responding to your question. All of your individual questions are directly addressed in Chapter 4 of my book “Minnesota Handbook on Warrantless Motor Vehicle Searches”. A digital copy of the book Can be found on my blog web page under “Featured Book”. Make sure you look at the vignette examples in that chapter. Chapter 4 was designed to answer those exact type of questions. Please let me know if that helps. Good luck.
Alan
