Amber Mcguire+FollowDon’t Leave This in Your Car During a Freeze!If you’re braving the cold snap, double-check your car for one thing: your vape. Leaving it inside when temps drop can wreck the battery, cause leaks, and—worst case—spark a fire. Experts say frozen vapes are a big no-no, especially with sketchy brands. If you forget and it gets icy, let it warm up before charging and check for leaks. Best move? Just take it inside! #Transportation #WinterStormWarning #CarSafety10Share
