So today, I was driving home, I like to eat sunflower seeds in my car and I have a little cup with the shells in my cupholder. Now I admit, it was pretty dumb, but I took the cup that was half full and dumped it out the window. I was at a red light, fully stopped. I would have never thrown them out a moving car and hit other cars with it. I usually wait till I get home and throw out the cup, but some reason, the cup just looked getting filled up, so I just dumped it there. This is a very busy intersection where I dumped the shells, and several thousand cars pass through this road each day. Prob after a few hundred cars running over them, the shells would have been ground up. I told the officer that I was sorry, but did not think that the shells would be that bad of an effect. I know many of you will say that littering is littering and it is 100% my fault....but I think that if I contest the ticket, I may get let go on it...nature returning to nature.
