This last one comes under the heading of "conspiracy." And conspiracy is one of a raft of ill-defined "crimes" the feds are using as a catch-all for anyone they want to bag. In addition to "conspiring" by doing nothing

Untrue.

The law has to prove that you indeed conspired with someone to break the law.

Merely sitting in a car while someone breaks the law without your prior knowledge is not conspiracy.

True, so very true, but when you are dragged into court, how are you going to prove the negative? Your honor, my client had no knowledge of what was going on while he was in the car. Yeah, sure!
