My closes brush with the law was years and years ago me and a friend ran into a bunch of cops while smoking a joint, we dropped the thing and played it cool and got away with some annoying questions.

What was your closest call?

Dude, that first story sounds scary as hell. Right on that you played it cool and it all worked out. I wonder if he noticed but decided to ignore it because you seemed likable.

No idea, I wondered that many times myself, because I could smell it the whole way. Maybe he thought I just smelled like weed from being somewhere else but wouldn’t be dumb enough to get in his car with it. Maybe he thought offering me a ride home and then arresting me would be a bad look. Or maybe he didn’t care because the house where I picked it up actually did have a active cop living there who also didn’t give a shit and used off duty. All I know is it was a close one.
