Used rocket launcher left for trash pickup causes scare

This reminds me of when I was 19, I was driving my friends car and got pulled over, we had beer in the car so got MIPs. So the cops were looking through the vehicle and asked us if we had any weapons or anything, I was like "Well, there is an old rocket launcher that we bought from a Military surplus store in the trunk" and they were like what?!? And so we opened the trunk and they took it out and was like "This thing is awesome!" and then put it back and let us go on our way (with tickets of course, and without the beer 🙁)
 
Where I work, we make EOD munitions training aids, using fused deposition modeling machines. They're basically used to train EOD students on how to recognize & defuse a number of different munitions that they may find, if a military vehicle or aircraft crashed.

We recently shipped out a pretty big order, 80 kits in all, each in it's own crate. Since they're not actual munitions, the crates don't have to be marked as hazardous......but it got me to thinking. Specifically, what would be the reaction of the first responder(s), if the truck carrying these crates were to crash, the crates split open, and spilled these training aids on the highway?? 😱 D: :hmm:
