OPINION

MANNHEIMER, Judge.

Based on evidence obtained during a traf-fie stop and the ensuing arrest of the driver for not having a valid driver's license, the police obtained a search warrant for a Fairbanks residence. There, they uncovered a methamphetamine lab run by the three defendants in this case. On appeal, the defendants claim that this evidence was obtained illegally and should be suppressed. For the reasons explained here, we conclude that the evidence against the defendants was obtained lawfully, and we accordingly affirm the defendants' convictions.
