They tend to use the phrase 'Real Quick' a hell of a lot... ie:

Can I just search you, real quick? OK?
Gonna ask you a few questions, real quick? OK?
Just gonna take a look in your car, real quick? OK?

etc etc...

Is this a police 'technique' or just a speech pattern thing?
Definitely sounds like a technique to put the suspected person at ease. "Oh just a quick search, he won't find the crack rocks in my socks."
