Tobacco road turns vapour trail: police seize 11,000 vapes on Hume Highway

After seizing more than $1.2 million in illegal tobacco products transported on the Hume Highway recently, an intensive police road safety operation this week has now turned up thousands of illegal vapes.

In two days, police have seized more than 20,000 vapes and over $270,000 in cash during three separate road stops while patrolling the Hume near Gundagai as part of the five-day Operation Furious, aimed at reducing the number of impaired drivers and vehicle crashes on the busy arterial freeway.
