They need probable cause to search the car and that also applies to a house or any place else. These days probable cause is enough if they believe a delay could result in evidence disappearing. Heck, here they can't even pull you over for not wearing a seatbelt, they have to have another reason, but then they can fine you for a seatbelt violation in addition.
