Its really one of the situations that you think of a 1000 things afterwards that you should have done. At the time i just wanted him to go away and mind his own business as i pretty much mind my own business when i scrap. When i make a mess i make sure it was cleaned up better than before i started. I do my best to be as quiet as i can as its usually after 10 when i am out scrapping. I am no expert on most laws pertaining cops but I was sure that they can pull you over anytime is they suspect you of doing something your not supposed to do. But i also have been was told by an officer that pulled me over for speeding once that the first so many feet of a persons property is public easement hence why its ok for an officer to sit in a private driveway and clock motorists. So that tells me if your trash can is at the curb its in the public easement. The most irritating part for me is someone that has no business in my business where i can and cant collect scrap. On the humorous side for the day i made sure to toot the horn 3 times last night as i passed by the road that is on the back side of his property. While I was hauling home the 3 truck loads of curbco goods.
