Along those lines, I was pulled over for speeding in Colorado and we had with us a huge industrial laser (legal, but enough to get the cop to call in backup and start sniffing) and a bunch of psychedelics (which I understand is frowned upon heavily in the USA)… Thankfully we said no to “can we search your van” and they had no probable cause and let us off with a speeding ticket only.
A closer call was getting pulled over here (almost 20 years ago) while in the passenger seat cutting up a couple of 100-tab sheets of acid and individually packing them to sell at a party that night. Almost had a heart attack because I didn’t realize we had been speeding. Pushed the stuff under the seat quickly but totally thought I was going to jail.
