    Most of the mall parking I go to, I don't even bother with opening my trunk anymore.

    True but will a 2 second look prove useful enough to detect anything? At least at certain malls like Shangrila Mall, they have bomb sniffing dogs. They open the trunk just enough for the dog to sniff the air from inside.

    jozef10 is right. Malls are private establishments so the plain view doctrine and the right to privacy (or properly, right against unreasonable searches) are not applicable. As private establishments, malls can therefore legitimately deny you entry if you refuse to have your vehicle inspected.

    I just submit to whatever check they want, it will not eat a minute of my time so why should I not follow it? and besides is it really that hard to flick a switch to open the trunk?

    Same here.
    I just get annoyed when the security guard slams the trunk too hard.

    i wonder if they even trained to open or close a trunk. one guard who did try to open mine had a hard time! and then, pag nagsara nga, parang gusto kung turuan muna.

    So if everyone else jumps off a high building, you will also follow?

    Those so-called "security checks" is the height of stupidity because anyone who plans to bring in a bomb would already have hidden it anywhere else in the vehicle except in the trunk. Or hidden the entire bomb inside the large isobaric box of a subwoofer system. And then what?

    there is a big difference in jumping off a building and flicking a switch to open my trunk, don't you think?

    Me three. Though I know that their glimpse in my trunk is just a waste of time, I wouldn't mind opening it since I know I am not hiding anything.

mall parking vehicle check??
