I wouldn't ask the question, I'd just continue to keep whatever I felt like keeping in my personal automobile and keep my mouth shut. If the company supplies me a car, then they can tell me what I can and can't keep in their car.
Unless I worked with some sort of classified information, there is no way I would put up with what you're describing. Security making you empty your pockets? :barf: Really? No way, that would be my last day on the job. Search my personal car, nope, sorry, not happening.
Unless you work in intelligence/national security, you don't sign away your personal freedoms when you take a job.
I suppose you could say that I feel rather strongly that what I do outside of the time I am actually on the job is none of my employer's business.
