Is brain train­ing the cure for car sick­ness? (The Sun­day Times):

RESEARCHERS from the Uni­ver­si­ty of War­wick think they’ve found the cure for motion sick­ness, a con­di­tion to which a third of peo­ple are high­ly sus­cep­ti­ble and from which any­one can suf­fer. The impli­ca­tions could be sig­nif­i­cant should ful­ly dri­ver­less vehi­cles become a real­i­ty, with pas­sen­gers pre­dict­ed to be more sus­cep­ti­ble to nau­sea while work­ing, read­ing or watch­ing screens dur­ing trav­el.

Brain train­ing may be required for occu­pants of dri­ver­less vehi­cles (Traf­fic Technology):

“A much-tout­ed per­ceived ben­e­fit of autonomous vehi­cle tech­nol­o­gy is that work­ing and a vari­ety of leisure activ­i­ties could be per­formed dur­ing the time freed up from being behind the wheel.
