I have never been arrested - as my Mum works for the police (as a civilian employee) the idea terrified me all through my teenage years. I think the only laws I have broken rather than bent have involved narcotics, and I made sure any activity of that kind was incredibly well shielded from view.
I was given a verbal warning (caution? talking to?) by a policeman after being caught giving oral to my boyfriend in his car. I was 17 and so terrified that I was sick in the bushes after he left. In hindsight he only took our names & addresses to scare us, after all he didn't ask for ID & we could have given false names, but for months I dreaded getting a summons to court or something!
