I was driving with my little brother in the car a few days ago. We went to the store and he bought himself a little toy. In my car he opened his toy, and at a red light he threw the packaging (keep in mind it was just a little pokemon toy, the packaging was a thin little piece of cardboard material with plastic over the actual toy) out the window like a frisbee and it landed on the side walk to the right of the car next to mine. This is the problem. The people in the car to the right of mine got OUT of their car, picked up the packaging, and when the light turned green they drove on the side of my car and yelled out at me "Is this yours?!" (i didn't really look at them because i kept my eyes on the road, but i could tell they were holding up the packaging) When I didn't say anything back they yelled "I have your license plate number! You can bet i'll see you in court!" Now this is my question: Will I get some kind of littering ticket if they go to the police? It was my little brother who threw the packaging, he's only 6 so I can't really be mad at him. I KNOW that the packaging did NOT hit their car, BUT, if they were to lie (like i have a feeling they will) and say that it hit their car, or that it hit their car while we actually driving or something like that, can I expect something worse than a ticket? I'm worried. I'm only 18 and I have a job and all, but something like this is not something i'm looking forward to dealing with if those people weren't bluffing. Please, i don't need lectures about littering or anyone telling me i shouldn't have let my brother throw anything out of my car. Just some general advice please :)... Read More »
