Correct. SCOTUS has ruled a stop/detention solely to check license status violates the 4A. Pretext stops, i.e. I see a known drug dealer leave a known drug house and I find a ticky-tack traffic violation to detain him so I can see if any other crimes are afoot is 100% OK since there is RS/PC for the detention and I don't have to strictly limit my investigation to THAT crime.

And anything illegal in plain sight, is fair game for the officer to justify doing a search without permission or a search warrant.
