I have discovered that I can't read in a road vehicle (car, bus, van, etc.), but I CAN read while on a train without any motion sickness. However, if my stomach is empty, I might feel a bit hot and dizzy after 10 minutes or so, and then I need a break.

Ah! Same for me! Well, no, I don't get motion sickness in a moving car without reading. But the other things you said are true for me as well.Embracing_Madness wrote:Totally. Heck I get motion sick just by sitting in a moving car for too long, regardless of whether I'm reading a book or not (though reading a book will certainly expedite the encroaching motion sickness to a matter of minutes!) However, I was pleasantly surprised to find out some time ago that I DON'T get motion sick when reading in a plane or a train, thank goodness.
I completely forgot about planes! Planes are nothing! And fortunately, these days, I only travel by trains and planes (because I don't own a car...)
