Vaping and driving

[JustMe2]

I find that I don't enjoy vaping in the car as well as when Im at home.

I know this might sound weird but I tried this the other night and it worked! I put on my sleeper mask while vaping to see if it would let me taste the flavor more ( The idea came to me when I saw one of those restaurants where you dine totally in the dark)

I do make sure to take my time so I don' tput a drip tip up my nose! LOL

Yup, you were right, that does sound weird...

I drive for a living..I'm always vaping and driving

I do, buuuuut Im a truck driver. If I only vaped when I stopped, that would be going along time without. I tend to chain vape particularly in heavy traffic and hub citiesand challenging spots like descending steep mountain grades. Driving was always a trigger for smoking for me and certain things on the road that triggered me to light a new one up still seem to trigger me to vape. Like for some reason, as soon as I see a sign indicating a weigh station I would light a cig, but now I still start puffing on my chosen juice of the day.

Lol. Trucker here also. Just moved to vaping 2 weeks ago. I always smoked more when driving and vaping hasn't changed that. Got a couple funny looks though going through the scales as I'm vaping.

I used to smoke and drive all the time until I got my first brand new (not used) car. So for 5 years since the day I got it I have not allowed myself to smoke in the car. That trip from Louisiana to Arizona a few years ago was an exercise in finding strategic rest stops to have a smoke. hahahahahahaha

Since I started vaping I am rediscovering the joys of not having to stop to have a smoke. I vape in the car all the time. It is WONDERFUL!

Same here. I own an used one now, but still, with the "new" I had before I would never smoke at all not to contaminate the interiors with that ....ty smell.
Then I got into vaping in May, around the same time I got the current car and whoa! The sensation of vaping on the boring traffic hours or stop lights with counters is awesome! "Oh yes, 50 seconds more to vape". It kinda takes away the fact I'm stuck in traffic.

I enjoy vaping while driving but sometimes its just not in the cards for me. It can be difficult to drive, vape AND shift gears all at once.

Well and not to say unsafe, it would be sort of like talking on the cellphone?

When I first started vaping, I used an eGo on a lanyard.....vaped all I wanted as I was flying down the road. Purchased a mod...much harder to do given the size and not having a lanyard for it. Actually now, waiting for the Innokin VTR to be released and reviews done, if good...it's my next buy with the belt clip. It'll be my "on the go" mod.....

I just saw the belt-clip you talk about but I don't like it (too much "dad-pouch" feeling to it, no offense!).

But It's interesting you talk about it because just now I'm trying to find a solution to hold the thing while I'm driving. My car is small and non-fancy so there is no default place to secure it. I resort to my pants' pocket just like I carry it all day (or the shirt pocket if I'm wearing one that has it) but it's a bit cumbersome!
I was seeing this even if I don't like the whole lanyard schema, I mean hanging it around my neck. Although there is the "more stylish" this, but It only fits ego batteries and I'm currently using the iTaste VV as my take outside device, with the VAMO and the MVP for home-use.
I was thinking about this, but it's too childish, but the idea is practical, as I'd only require it for car-use (Or maybe I can just order that and un-sew the domo-kun).
Any other ideas?

Half hour commute each way to work, a-vaping all the way.

NYC ? I used to do 55 miles , I hope your fuel is paid for.

Nope, I did the NYC thing back in 07- but I took the bus then.

Now, it's all driving, and nope- fuel is all on me I try to carpool as much as possible but I have to drive an hour to get to the next closest person's house.

... and this is why I traded in a Chrysler Town & Country Ltd minivan for a Honda Civic

Another trucker here and yes, I vape while driving. I do stop to refill my tank or clearo.
