MADDOX, Justice.

This Court granted the State's petition for a writ of certiorari to review the decision of the Court of Criminal Appeals, 388 So.2d 202, which had reversed respondent Reid's robbery conviction on the ground that the warrantless search of Reid's vehicle was illegal and not within a recognized exception to the warrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution. We reverse and remand.
