alt Hacker News> Again, this case is about Terry stops. Not traffic stops.
A traffic stop is a Terry stop. It's within the circle on the Venn diagram.
Stop-and-frisk of a pedestrian is also a Terry stop.

But not all Terry stops are traffic stops. The case you're citing wasn't a traffic stop.

That’s not the point. The point is that a traffic stop is a traffic stop. Traffic stops, while they are Terry stops, also have separate governing rules, such as the fact that there is a failure to identify while operating a motor vehicle statute in every state.
