But I am curious about your experience that
you do not get vectored when you are VFR. If I ask for flight following
from center (or approach), I believe I have experienced being vectored
even though I was VFR. Perhaps I recall incorrectly. I wonder if a
controller-type person can enlighten us on the rules about vectoring VFR
traffic under flight following.


ATC separates VFR aircraft in Class B and Class C airspace, in the outer
area associated with Class C airspace, and in TRSAs. In those areas it is
entirely proper for ATC to vector VFR aircraft. Outside of that airspace
VFR aircraft are vectored only by request.
