iheartvape Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I haven't been. Had a few odd looks. Its common around base though so I think they are getting use to the vaping. Mtdobies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I'm waiting for it too, lol Here's my question.... Did he use that as probable cause to search your vehicle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spyke_696 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 rjr so im still so far the only one picked off after feeling like an *** hole im sure he asked if he could instead of breaking his way in and i said no and he accepted that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spyke_696 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 in all reality i showed him my vape so with it being a non herb item there should be no probable cause Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 A state trooper pulled me over the other day. He made up a bogus reason saying that my tags were expired in their system even though the sticker on my license plate and registration were all current (so why was he looking it up in the first place when there was no reason?). He then gave me a warning to get lighter tinting on my windows all the while staring at my Vision Spinner and Davide mini. I think he saw me vaping and thought something nefarious was going on instead. Joshuab3687 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tam Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Isn't that legal in Colorado though? It is but it's a no no topic in this forum so we'll just leave it at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthling789 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Interesting subject... my brother-in-law is a cop, and he was noticing my eGo with KPT3 mini over Mother's day weekend, and casually mentioned that it was "good that I didn't have one of those round, globe-tanks"... [then he chuckled] Apparently they are told / encouraged to be on the lookout for the round, globe-style, dry-herb vaporizers while on patrol... and they are also given a pretty good education on types of equipment, too... He doesn't smoke, nor vape, but he was able to identify correctly that my tank was a "mini", and my battery was an eGo-style. Kudos to his department for educating their officers!

BirdDog Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 This is a great conversation. I think it is important to learn how someone handles being pulled over for ecig suspicious activity. I live in the state that legalized the fun stuff. I have felt a bit strange about vaping in my car. Especially when stopped with a bunch of other cars at a light. Makes me wonder what other drivers are thinking and whether or not they might report me. I have a scanner that I run constantly at home. Since January, I have heard about a handful of calls relating to someone driving with suspicious smoke coming from the car. Not sure what came of them, so guessing that it was nothing. Just so you understand, The fun stuff law in my state, specifically only makes it legal in the home. Not on the street, not in public and not in the car. So with all that being said. Being the Admin, you can keep discussing this topic, but please be careful not to turn this thread to far south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshuab3687 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Being an Over the Road trucker, I've actually had a couple conversations with Tennessee State Police and Arkansas DOT officers at a weigh station. They didn't pull me over. Were just doing a random DOT inspection on my rig. They were pretty cool about my vaping. I think they were more interested in how much vapor I was producing. I could tell the one from Arkansas was a smoker from the way he smelled. Told him about all the benefits I've received after starting the vape and trashing the stinkys. Hopefully he'll convert.

Spyke_696 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 ya it helped me as well it the best way i can see to stop the stink bombs but idk im gunna soon be getting my nemesis up and going after everything shows up so maybe that will help it to not look like the pipe and if i get pulled over or in a convo with a cop it wont be a confusion more of a learning exp. for him or her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vaping Viking Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I spit out a giant cloud from my window on a rather still winded day right next to a cop and all he did was ask what flavor it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiveostang Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Oh I know it's coming I was right next to a cop and made a point to continue to vape so he wouldn't get suspicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
