What is the test for determining whether a search conducted during a search of a vehicle by a search warrant has exceeded the permissible scope of a search?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from United States v. Mehciz, 437 F.2d 145 (9th Cir. 1971):

Conceding the lawful nature of his arrest, appellant's contention is that the search went beyond the permissible scope of a search incident to a lawful arrest. Primary reliance is placed upon Chimel v. California, 395 U.S. 752, 89 S.Ct. 2034, 23 L.Ed.2d 685 (1969).
