Hello,
Car sick, like sea sick, air sick, motion sickness, and "space adaptation syndrome" occur because of a mismatch between information that the body is receiving form the eyes, sensors in the skin, and the inner ears. These things show up as a queasy belly. It's not about one's sense of balance. Two things to offer; one is to adopt counter measures from well-trained pilots. They wear tee-shirts under their flight suits for a reason. That being, if they need to barf (highly technical term, I know), the pull out the "vee" by the collar in the flight suit and hurl (another highly technical term) down the inside of the flight suit (assuming no air sickness bag is handy).
Gross yes, but far easier to laundry the cloths than clean up the airplane, or in this case, your beloved Camaro. The applicability of this capture procedure to vehicle passengers is to teach them to puke (a third highly technical term) down the inside of their shirt, assuming that they don't beg to get out (and the driver has the time to let them) before up-chucking.
This "throw up inside their own shirt" technique should be mandatory training for all toddlers to learn. It could be solved in one generation. Certain college frat and sorority parties, as well as drunken Navy sailors could also benefit from the training.
To prevent motion sickness, people have to be acclimated to ignore the messages of their inner ears. Because of active lifestyle choices, some of us never face the issue. Micro-exposure seems to have the greatest benefit. Tumbling, rolling down a hill, flip turns in pools (potentially problematic given the consequences) and other types of spinning may help to suppress the body's response to the mismatch in signals. Perhaps getting some more time on amusement park rides could help as well. Motion sickness drugs are also effective choices for some people.
I hope this helps.
Kindest,
Donner
