Hi guys!

Just a quick question

Does the cameras on motorway (M25) can catch you vaping ?
How do they work in order to catch someone vaping actually?

A bit worried about it

Cheers

Yes, expect a letter from vaping authorities.

Vaping behind the wheel isn't illegal.
unless youre 17 and shouldnt have one at all. What do you think you've done wrong?

And what cameras do you think are out to catch people vaping??

Relax. They have better things to do. Unless you were stopped on the hard shoulder for no other reason to have a vape, which is naughty becuase the shoulder is for "emergency use only" but while driving, you're fine.

Seems an odd question, nothing says you cant do it, bit like saying does a camera catch you scratching your ear, nothing wrong in doing that either.

Cheers for the answers, there are cameras that can catch you smoking, eating etc, so I thought vaping could fall under that category

You can eat , drink and smoke as long as it doesn't cause a distraction according to the RAC website, but they have managed to get it wrong before so don't take it as gospel.

I seldom masticate behind the wheel, unless the wife is with me to pass me stuff.

Reduced to 6 points and a Bogey Awareness Course if you roll it and eat it.

Not an entirely stupid question from OP, as it is unlawful to smoke in a car if there are also children in the car.

Doesn't apply to e-cigs though
