Okay, so I have been vaping for just around 2 years, and I have had many looks and funny faces made at me due to my mods and tanks and drip tips. That is usually as far as it goes, funny looks is all. Today we decided to go Christmas shopping, we live in Montana so the nearest Wally-World is 100 miles away, and my wife's car had the car seats in it so we took hers. I drive 65 as a normal rule, even though the speed limit on Montana Interstate is 75, nobody needs to go 75 especially with their family in the car. So I'm driving along and come upon a vehicle going slower than myself, so I pass, as I am passing I am taking a pull from my Silver Bullet with a Submarine tank and a large ss ming drip tip, as we pass the vehicle we see that it is a sheriff deputy, no big deal we all have seat-belts I am not speeding so I keep going. Immediately after passing the sheriff deputy we see a Highway Patrol on the other side of the Interstate, I said "Wow two cops in a row on Sunday that's weird." Again mind you we live in Montana. Not two minutes after seeing the highway patrol on the other side of the interstate, he was next to me looking in the vehicle, again I was taking a pull off my silver bullet. All of a sudden he slammed on his brakes and got behind me and turned on his cherry lights. Now of course at this time my wife says "What did you do?" I replied "Nothing I'm not speeding, the kids are strapped in, and we are all wearing seat-belts, the car has permanent plates so they aren't expired, I don't know what I did."
I pulled over onto the shoulder and as I checked my mirrors to make sure I was off the road completely, I noticed the sheriff deputy was also back there with his lights on, I said "Wow, whatever I did must've been bad, because there's two of them back there." The highway patrolman gets out and walks up on the "passenger" side with his hand on his gun, while the sheriff deputy is standing behind his open driver's door, probably with his hand on his gun.
My wife rolls down her window, and the officer speaks "My name is Trooper such and such, and the reason I pulled you over today is uhhhhh......" he pauses and looks around the vehicle "you have a crack in your windshield. Where are you headed today?" now in Montana we do not have vehicle inspections and every vehicle in the state has a cracked windshield, no joke, rocks fly up off the road on a daily basis and crack a windshield. If you buy a new windshield in two weeks it's cracked or chipped really bad. I have been pulled over, mostly tail lights or brake lights no speeding or anything, in this vehicle plus others with way worse windshields and the cops never said a word, because a crack in a windshield is normal here as long as it's not horrible, you buy a used car off of a lot and it has a cracked windshield. So anyway, " I'm going to need your license and registration" I give him all the necessary paperwork, he looks at my license and paperwork, "Okay, Richard what's that next to your leg on the seat?" AHA!!! the real reason you pulled me over and why Barney Fife is standing back there polishing his bullet!
I explained what it was and after telling me he never heard of those and never seen one before, he gave me a warning on the windshield and he and the scaredstiff(I mean sheriff)deputy drove off into the sunset. Now, I seen many other cops the rest of the day and none pulled me over for my "windshield", amazing, it was so bad that he had seen it from the other side of the interstate going 70 mph, but no other cop pulled me over in any of the towns we went to, and I probably seen a dozen the whole day, oh plus my next door neighbor is a sheriff deputy and he doesn't pull us over every time we leave the driveway.
So, the moral of the story is if you see a cop act nervous and hide your pv, screw that vape in public, vape proud, vape hard, vape on, and vape away. We shouldn't have to act like we are hitting drug paraphernalia, we are vapers. We vape to better ourselves, and feel better, and most of all to keep us of cigarettes. If nothing else we should educate Barney Fife and his band of power tripping control freak friends. By the way, Any remarks I make about police officers I have earned the right to make, my father was a state trooper, sheriff deputy, and police officer for thirty years, I lived with a cop so I know how they work and think, and these guys thought they were going to get a drug bust off the guy in a Dodge Intrepid driving 65 with his wife and 3 kids in the car going Christmas shopping. To make matters worse, my wife who smokes and is already against me vaping, says "See that stupid E-Cigarette stuck to your face is going to get you in trouble, you did that on purpose to see if they would pull you over." I said " UH.. No I was just vaping and you were smoking a cigarette at the same time, we both obviously needed our nicotine, I didn't even think about a cop I have become so comfortable with my vaping it's just natural now, I want a vape I take one!"
So now you know beware out there, some people still don't know about vaping, will I be more cautious now.........Hell No!!! Now I'm going to vape every time I see a cop, after they all pull me over then they will know what it is and leave me alone.
