Said its littering and after checking license etc. gave me a warning ticket and said a real one would cost $140 and warned me not to do it again.
They must have some good eyes to see one sunflower shell coming out the window.
Moral of the story is do not spit sunflower seeds when a cop is watching. I know and understand it sounds stupid but littering is against the law. I have the utmost respect for the police and the job they do and obviously this one has way better than 20/20 vision.
