ACLU: Cops Stealing Drivers' Phone Data

Can someone explain to me how this is even close to being legal. Should we all expect "drivers license, registration, proof of insurance...and your phone" now when we get pulled over?

The Michigan State Police have started using handheld machines called "extraction devices" to download personal information from motorists they pull over, even if they're not suspected of any crime. Naturally, the ACLU has a problem with this.
