The outside of your car is not private property. In addition, if you are drugging up in your car and a police officer sees you doing this, they can extract your from the vehicle, search you, and search the car. This is because of probable cause. If an officer of the law believes someone is doing something illegal or that someone is in direct danger, they can break the fourth amendment. If at a later point it is determined that the officer did not have probable cause, anything they found while searching you or your property cannot be used as evidence against you.
