If you surprise the vein, it won't have time to roll 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The speed at which the force of the needle is being applied, at the time of breaking the tension of the skin and vein, could very well impact/mitigate the subsequent movement of the blood vessel.

I’m not sure why suggesting that the physics involved may be helpful for rolling veins, is apparently so ludicrous.

Oh my apologies! There are times when, through text, tone isn’t well conveyed— I misconstrued your comment as being antagonistic.

That's completely understandable, don't worry. It's not your fault. I assumed it was a misunderstanding.
