It depends, I have been caught several times by official groups with items that their individual groups disagree with. However I'm careful to only get caught every once in awhile to ensure that I don't become a problem child.
I haven't seen FR5's used recently other than on smugglers who quick dock to lawful stations to get away.

For example:
Your own preference to being caught by lawfuls who you know may play along rather than fine you is another. Should there be a guideline for that kind of thing?
Oh I understand,
It depends on where I am and more importantly what I'm carrying. I believe my interaction with LPI was helped by the fact I was moving arms vs cardimine (the lesser of two evils).
It would be difficult to set up guidelines for such a matter because each group views certain contraband items in different lights.
Something I would like to see would perhaps be a "RP cargo rule" if I have less than 5 units of a certain item it can be considered "hidden" from scanners
