I had 3 different new rules written in response to things I did with vehicles at 1 ambulance station I worked for.

You gonna leave us wondering?
I got a flat and my spare was never filled, I took the tire to the closest garage and I told them to bill the state. Then got a phone call from fleet maintenance a week later asking why I went to that garage. Because you idiots didn't fill my spare when you gave me my explorer. Would you rather have paid for a tow 60 miles away to the garage? He hung up on me.
I have a very similar story involving throwing lemons at cars from a grove, as well as shooting cars with paintball guns.
Having said that, no need to retell those stories, since they basically ended up like yours, except with the paintball guns and getting brought home by the police.
I will tell this though, since it is kind of on the same topic. I was in Guadalajara with my family for a "special" trip since my uncle was being ordained a priest. We were staying in downtown in a hotel and my mother and grandparents went out for a late night meal. No idea why we were left at the hotel, but my sister and I were left alone in the room. I don't remember what floor we were on, but we were up there. We were bored and kids will be kids, and I was looking for something to do. The windows opened completely up, unlike in first world countries, so I decided to throw things at traffic. I started by wetting toilet paper and chucking it down, quite fun, but ultimately got boring. I graduated to full toilet paper rolls completely soaked in the sink. First direct hit changed that completely. I hit a cab smack dab on the roof and it made the loudest noise (had to be 3 or more pounds since it was saturated) and the cab screeched to a halt. At that moment I realized maybe that wasn't the best idea in a third world country. We quickly turned off lights, closed all windows, drew the curtains, and jumped into bed laughing nervously. When my mother and grandparents returned adrenaline was still pumping, but we pretended to be asleep. We were the best kids in the world the rest of the trip. Fortunately we were never caught, but that would have been some shit.
I was with 3 friends and a random girl that my friend hooked up with in Ensenada when a cop car pulled up and put all of us against the wall. The cop said we were with a prostitute (she was a skank American) and that was illegal (it is not, prostitution is legal there, within the "tolerance zone" we were in, and he was looking for money). I was detained in the back of a cop car after some questioning with one of my friends, while my other friend and the skank were still being shaken down. I had to piss since we just left a bar and had no idea if we would be hauled around for a few hours before coughing up enough cash to make this cop happy (been there, done that several times). I told my friend I had to piss and he was flipping out saying hold it, but I whipped out my half inch and pissed all over the floor of the cop car. We eventually were let out after a "donation" to the court system and as soon as the cop car was out of sight we ran like banshees to the safety of my friend's house. That one could have turned out really bad. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when the cop realized piss was all over the floor (no carpet, so it was sloshing back and forth when he drove. LOL
