I don't know--have you actually done the experiment and stood by to watch what people do? My bet is that most people won't have a moral decision because they won't even really see the money--they'll think it's a flyer or a parking ticket or something. Others will notice it and pass by. If one person does take it, what have you proved?
Should the money be elaborately booby-trapped because one person might reach out and try to take it? Suppose the person who left it there just wants to take it back and put it on another vehicle?
