Anecdote time: In my younger days, I was once stupidly walking down the street with a cup full of something I should not have been walking down the street with. It was late - only my girlfriend and I were on the street. Seeing a police car turning the corner in my direction, I panicked and tossed the cup. He must have saw this because he goes lights and sirens, and holds me for 45 minutes on the side walk while he asks me the all the guilt-admitting questions he can conjure. He was really desperate. At one point, he even attempted to breathalyze the ground where the cup was. It was a silly situation. I received a littering fine. Moral of the story: don't show your hand, and don't do stupid things.
