For me? No, because I’m usually the one driving…
Audio books
Doesn’t work for me. I know friends who listen to them on longer road trips, but for me, they’re too much of a distraction while driving. That, or I ignore them completely.
I’d much rather read or listen as a passenger.
@Jon i understand. I know a few other people that are the same way.
Yes, but I also like to listen to audio books in the car.
If m not driving yes :).
Only when I am not the one driving, and depending on how I feel and the driving style of the driver. In some cases i get a bit nauseous.
Unless you’re driving ? Why not =)
I read in the car.
I do.
I also read in the car always have ever since my parents gave me comic books while traveling.
Can’t do it, makes me really carsick
I can’t read in the car, I get nauseous rather quickly. I wish I could.
Does listening to audiobooks count ? I find it hard while travelling so I listen to audiobooks
Yes I do.
Audio books give me life…lol i drive 1 1/2 hours to work… i live in the library, or hoopla…lol
Can’t do it cos it makese feel sick
I can’t as it makes me nauseous.
I can’t. I get headaches. I listen to audiobooks.
Can’t as I get nauseous.
Want to but can’t
Yes
No get travel sickness
I want but I can’t. It makes me dizzy.
Makes me car sick?
Nope. Instant nausea.
Definitely not.
I read when I’m at a red light. Might as well be doing something while you’re waiting
Sometimes
I used to be able to for a while. Read and studied on the bus on my way to school in the mornings. Now, sadly, I get a terrible headache and nausea when reading in a moving vehicle ?
cant get sick unless we are astopped at a light
I do!
I used to be able to then I hit teen years and couldn’t. I just recently started to be able to do it again. Bugs my hubby I read more than talk to him but at least I’m not asleep
No . Never . I always get a sick feeling when I read while traveling . Don’t know why ! It just happens .
No never
Never. Gives me a headache and makes me nauseous.
Recipe for motion sickness for me!
I can. Had a 4 hour drive and finished like half of the book even though I felt like I’d be sick several times so I just put the book down for few minutes
As long as there aren’t a lot of stops, and too many turns. So long road trips I usually can.
Nope. I can’t concentrate. The way people drive I have my full attention on the road, no matter who is driving.
I can but I have a harder time focusing so my reading speed slows to a crawl
I have to take Dramamine before I can read in the car. If not I’m so sick by the time I get whereever we are going I’m down for 2-3 days. 🙁
Never tried taking Dramamine first. ?
@Janie make sure you take the non-drowsy Dramamine or else you will be knocked out.
I take the organic Dramamine and it’s done wonders for short trips and long trips. I’ll take a picture of it here in a minute
I’ve taken Dramamine as a precaution before going on snorkeling trips, etc. Never needed it on cruises or planes. Never occurred to me it might facilitate reading in a car. Worth a try!
Nope.
I feel dizzy.
I can’t as get nauseous I can’t even look at my phone to check a message as feel sick.
I can yes
I love reading in the vehicle.
Can’t…it makes me car sick
No. I get motionsick when reading in a moving car.
Love reading in the car?
Would be sick as a dog.
Can’t even play video games. ?
Words bounce too much. Or at least the l last time I did that years ago they did. That does not count reading addresses, directions and such though. I usually do okay with them.
I wish I could, but I get car sick reading and riding. Can’t even read on a plane, sadly.
Not while driving. Lol.
Nope
Nope
Tried reading in the car, but with bouncing and such I get car sick. But I can read anywhere else?!…

Yes. I even listen to my iPod for background music.

I do every where we go
Nope, I get sick right away. No fun puking in the car.
Yes to reading in the car! Sometimes I struggle with car sickness and if I drink a fizzy drink it goes away so I can keep reading.
I do as a passenger, and when I drive, I do audio books.
In the car, on bus, on a plane or on a boat — I can read anywhere.
You are lucky. I wish I could without being sick.
I personally have no trouble reading on buses or trains or in cars. Great way as a passenger to pass the time on the journey.
Nope. I can’t. Get car sick. ?
Yes
Yes I can.
No. I get cat sick very quickly if I read. It used to suck being a bookworm on a long car trip.
No way I get car sick when i try to read in the car
Audible…a great listen!
Motion sickness for sure if I do
Yes!
Make sure to have the vent blowing on you so your body registers movement.
Yes always!!!!!! I can’t go anywhere without my book!
Nope…… I get bad motion sickness and puke. Even looking at a map, even my GPS. But my tablet is always on me, so I read when we get to wherever we’re heading.
Think I got sick doing that when I was a teenager. Haven’t ever done it since. I’m usually not going anywhere that I would have time to read and I live alone since my son graduated in 2000, so I’m driving myself unless going on vacation with best friend and I rather talk or listen to music with her.
I can’t read in a bus or a car. Train, only.
I can read ANYWHERE….ok, except a cruise ship because not going to get on one…hahahahahaha
Always!

Immediate headache
I would always read when in back seat going somewhere … very rare occurrence now but I don’t get sick with it
I can’t makes me puke
No because it makes me feel sick….
I always do. I get to work early and read before I go in
Nope tried that did not end well……I just get to sick and to bad headaches from it
No
Yes. I get sick looking down, so I hold the book in a more upright position, then I’m fine. Window open a bit too.
Audiobooks!
Yes!
Yes I always reading in the vehicle thats why I always have a book in my bag, also I have ebooks in my cellphone which I read when I have waiting time.
Not while driving…. Some one should pass a law regarding that…
