Vapeing is not a safe alternative to smoking. I am a physician. We had a patient come onto the ER a few weeks ago in flash pulmonary edema from vapeing. It caused pulmonary fibrosis of his lungs. He now needs a lung transplant. Vapeing has significantly more carcinogens than regular cigarettes.
I had a patient just last week who had his vape pen explode in his pocket. Pants caught on fire and he experienced significant burns to his leg and hand.
The only people who are telling you it is safe are the people selling you the product.
Camaro friends steer clear of vapeing!

No, and I don't smoke in my car either. (I don't smoke period actually). I have a strict no smoking rule in my car. I'll pull over and let you out to have a smoke, but you're not doing it in my car.

Vaping sucks! Nothing as irritating as watching some punk belch out a mushroom cloud of his stinky bubblegum flavored shitty steam in a crowd. Gave me a case of chronic bronchitis when I tried it. I use nicotine gum if I get an urge now. That sucks too! Better to give up nicotine altogether. And NO, I would never "vape" in my car nor would I allow it.

Propylene Glycol is the primary ingredient of coolant, so yeah. It is in some.

I still drink beer and drive. But I’m really careful not to spill. Yeah, I know. Sue me.

I have to ask...where did you get this information from?

Because you seem to be the only doctor I have heard that knows this as a fact.

I don’t smoke in general nor does my wife and so no one has smoked in my car. Only thing we do is drop food and spill drinks in our Camaro and my other cars.

Vapeing? C'mon Doc, everyone knows that you drop the "e" when ending with a vowel suffix... and I'm just a dumb old sheetrocker.

Vaping is considered smoking and is still not allowed in work places around here, but I don't care because I do neither.
