While the act itself is not illegal, it could lead to drivers breaking the law
Motorists are being alerted to a little-known potential fine of up to £5,000 for vaping while driving, a habit experts say could significantly impair visibility and lead to serious legal consequences. The warning comes from Swansway Motor Group.
"Drivers need to be aware that vaping in the car can lead to serious consequences. Under the Road Traffic Act, anything that obscures a driver's vision, including vape smoke, can be considered as driving without due care. Offenders may face up to a £5,000 fine and nine points on their licence.
