It should not affect your eyes but people who are prone to travel sickness are advised to look outside the vehicle ,focus on something far away.Reading with your head down can bring on nausea and possibly dizziness.

Its only bad if you are driving.

How would it make your eye sight poor if you are a passenger reading in a car?  Those people dont know what they are talking about.

Ive read hundreds of times as a passenger in a car.

Answer 6

only if you read and drive at the same time<

Answer 7

No, this is just a myth...

yes, even though you are not driving.

because inside the car its always moving

and your eyes will have to move as the car moves because they need to see the book steadily when you are reading.
