Is NOS! Illegal?
Does anyone know for a fact, that NOS! is illegal?
Some people say it's illegal.
Some people say it's not illegal.
What the heck is it?
I always thought if it was on while driving, it's illegal.

NOS is a brand name, and not by any stretch of the word a technical or scientific term for NO2(sic).

langauge filters are there for a reason. and quit flaming. it makes you look stupid, especially considering you yourself were just as wrong as him. NO2 is nitrite, not nitrous oxide. N2O is nitrous oxide.

I meant off as in the handle is off so you wont be able to use it either way because the nitrous tank will be closed off.
Im in South California, does anyone know* the law for NOOOOOOOS!

Cool, maybe it'll be the same here. I think that seems logical, but I'm hoping that is the law.

Rep Power: 265 The only reason I'm calling it NOS is because its easier than saying Nitrous.
Did you happen to ever read the bottle?
NOS is on the sticker.

Rep Power: 277 Nitrous is legal to have in your car, however, use on public roads is illigal. Race use on a close course is legal. Just read the warnings that come with bottle.

i'm thinking that nitrous is illegal to have in your car. i've heard of people getting pulled over for "racing" and then having a police search their car and finding a tank in the trunk (just the tank. no lines/hoses) and ticketing them for using nitrous.

Rep Power: 0 yes it depends on the state! Most if not all states it is illegal to use nitrous on public streets! However it is not illegal for you to have a nitrous bottle in your car! Check with your local law enforcement for details!
