Hi guys, I started vaping about 7 years ago and I got ticketed for 85 in a 70 over the weekend. Have you guys experienced this? The guy at the vape shop near my house never told me vaping would cause me to get speeding tickets. I think I might be safer by going back to cigarettes.


.....sorry. With all the " (insert malady here) due to vaping..." threads we see these days, I kinda felt left out. :D

I'm not trying to pile on, here....but I'm fairly confident that vaping is why I seem to have a nail in my tire. Never ran over a nail as a smoker. It sucks because I really enjoy vaping and I love all the flavors.....but I can't just keep buying tires!

I always though of tickets as a "road tax".
Since I always exceed the speed limit, occasionally I would have to pay the piper.
Happened as a smoker, happens as a vaper.

Gotta be careful 'round them Waffle House restaurants...:danger:
Cheers

The answer is clear here. You were running out of liquid and had to speed to a vape shop to re-up. More foresight and stocking up can prevent this. I have a closet full of eliquid and cheetos. I don't get tickets anymore. Simple.

Yes! Ever since I started vaping my hair has gone greyer.:mad:
It was a little bit grey before I vaped but over the last year its even more so!:shock:
Also, Im a hell of a lot more emotional!! :oops:
I actually started laughing the other day. I liked it.:(


When I first joined ECF I was surprised by the amount of new member single posts asking about some malady or concern "related" to vaping.
I thought they were just concern trolls trying to populate google search results with results that caused uncertainty.

I can't use an rda anymore. A fly flew into the car when my dad was driving and I was vaping and my alien clapton coils zapped the fly as soon as flew in. That was my only set up and we were driving across the country. Luckily we found a vape shop and I bought a tank so I was reassured it wouldn't happen again:)

Since I started vaping Ive quit my job and got a new one. Its a much better job but I just cant be bothered. Turns out that maybe its me and not the jobs that are the problem. I dont think Im cut out for work now that I vape, or even before I vaped. Whats a good single battery mod?

What was the big deal? Hit the fire button a few times and the fly is gone. Shouldn't even affect the wick. If I had to run to the vape shop for every fly I fried I'd be living there.

Wait, I think I already do.

I guess I'm Old School. But I always looked at Road Signs as more of a Suggestion.

You weren't makin' enough vapor symmetry to fool the damned radar. You have only yourself to blame. Not Asbest as you thought you were, huh, punk?

Good luck. :D

But, I haven't vaped anything from a store in years. I'm a diy guy. It's a mystery

You could be on to something. As of a couple weeks ago, I've turned into a bit of a billet Box fanboy. Not exactly cloud comp gear....
