Here's a scenario: I stop a driver for speeding. What's more suspicious to find on the passenger's seat: 10 bottles of Smirnoff's and some rags or 10 bottles of nail polish remover?
Depends on the context. What else is in the car, how messy it is, how shifty they're acting, etc. I'd lean towards finding the nail polish more suspicious as long as the Smirnoff bottles were unopened.
If I add context then it starts feeling like a written exam. But let's call the driver young, car messy. Smirnoff and rags? Nothing good comes of this. At least with nail polish remover, maybe they're cleaning up the paint they accidentally spilled in mum's kitchen.
Thankfully I haven't employed a grading system for my texts yet. That is a higher risk scenario. But I do also think the young driver with the messy car would be relatively easy to talk off the ledge.
Ever run into a bunch of kids setting tires on fire out of boredom? It's really hard to sound authoritative when they're rolling flaming wheels at you.

Though friend pranks are always a strong possibility with the popularity of that genre on tiktok.

Though I do prefer the vodka bottle to the tire.

For drinking? Unfortunately still yes. Has to at least taste better than melted tire.
