Cash on Highway Up for Grabs: What Would You Do?

[NoHuddleKelly12]

So this surreal scene played out here locally in Atlanta, and begs the question of what the esteemed members here would do if confronted with piles of greenbacks in front of their cars? Truly bizarre.

I believe all money in armored cars has scanned or known serial numbers in it? I could be wrong......

I'm not voting for legal reasons!

[Cynical]

On the I-285? Not on my life.

[DrDawkinstein]

My first thought is that I'd jump out and grab as much as I could.

 

But I know too many people who have died on 285 while IN cars, so on second thought, I'm probably just driving by.

 

Unless they are $100's.

I hear that. My least favorite highway to drive on in this city, and that's saying something. Crazy drivers, crazy congestion, crazy interchanges. No thanks.

...straight into a traffic cam footage silver platter for police to review however. Unless—is that mud on your license plate?

I'm grabbin' and scoopin' as much as I can carry.

Then I'd sit on it for a good long while in case there's a knock at the door.

It’d probably depend what time of day.  During rush hour no, after hours a good chance 

[Boca BIlls]

Finder keepers rule come into effect?

What the hell choice is #3 about... Why don't you just ask: "Are you mentally ######ed?"

 

Question #3 is like giving money to a Nigerian phone scam!

That's why I never leave home without my nets... Works just as well from any moving vehicle.

Maybe with that net you could finally grab that dollar from the State Farm fisherman

  I've dreamed about finding several hundred dollars in the parking lot of Batavia Downs or Del Lago but it would be my luck there would be a security cam operating there and the money would belong to a drug dealer.  I turned in nearly 400 dollars that was laying in the entrance to a Wegman's about a decade ago.  Stupid for somebody not to secure it better but my gut told me it belonged to someone who sorely needed it.  As to the incident in question I'd let it go as your car might be easily identified as been on the scene when the money fell out.

Good man RR. You’re probably right!
