Have you tried reading inside the car, bus or in any vehicle? I found out in the magazinde some suggestion that is helpful for those people love's reading even inside the vehicle. here are some tips. "Slouch down in the seat and hold your book as close to eye level as possible. "Not looking down should head off motion sickness, another option is place the hand closest to the window next to our eye to block your side view of the orad and keep you from detecting motion... I got interested topic because i've always doing reading inside vehicle. Have you experienced like that?

I absolutely cannot read in a moving vehicle. If I do it has to be something very short like instructions or directions, if it is any longer I get a headache and very sick. I don't know why but I have always had this since I was a child. I also use to feel ill after long trips in the car.

I love to read anytime, any place and reading as the passenger in a car used to be a favorite. It would make 3 hours trips feel like 10 minutes because I could get so engrossed in my book. Lately though as I get older I have a harder time to read in a car and have begun to even develop a bit of motion sickness. I will try these tips you gave on my next road tri pand see if that helps me! Thanks for the advice!

I would say reading in the car is okay but perhaps if it is a long trip to read maybe 30 minutes at a time allowing for some break for the eyes and the neck so you do not feel the straining.
The breaks maybe good because you get to occupy the mind from reading and enjoying the atmosphere surrounding.
