Unable to focus while driving?

Question

I've been driving since May, yep new driver. For the last few years while I was in the passenger seat I would find that quite often I would be unable to focus my attention on anything. I would feel slightly disconnected. My doctor told me it was car sickness and that it would go away once I started driving.

In the beginning when I was driving it started happening, not too often but almost every time I drove, off and on. But for the last two or so months it's been happening almost the entire time I drive. The only way I'm able to stay a little focused is by looking straight down at the road, instead of straight ahead. Any advice?

Answer 1

Maybe you shouldn't drive if your are unable to focus on the road, but I don't really understand what you mean, it must be less severe then I am imagining or you would have crashed by now.

Answer 2

I'll tell you every single information I learned:

A: When you're a driver you don't feel dizzy because:

1. You control the car.

2. You're thinking about your driving, not the motion.

B: When you're a passenger you do feel dizzy because:

1. You don't control the car.

2. You're thinking about the movement and you think it's a lot dizzy
