VPLive Vape Team Episode #102: Don’t Vape and Drive

On VPLive Vape Team Episode #102: “Don’t Vape and Drive” - Tonight we have Jeff Sherwood from the Knoxville Business Examiner on to discuss the case of a New York state man who was ticketed for using an electronic device while driving… an eGo, does the “don’t text and drive” law cover e-cigs too? We cover Russ Wishtart and NYC CLASH’s new lawsuit against NYC, can we really fight city hall? We make the case for why Stanton Glantz shouldn’t be trusted. Finally we go over the hysteria over kids drinking e-liquid, and why it’s a non-issue.

Support Vaping in NYC, support the NYC CLASH Lawsuit against the NYC Vaping Ban!
