Motion Sickness: Physiological Vertigo
Vertigo while in moving vehicles particularly is known as motion sickness. This is due to a "sensory conflict" between one’s vision and the actual movement sensation. In motion sickness, it is caused by multi-sensory motions that do not correlate to the expected pattern of movement.
Many feel better sitting in the front seat of the car or bus as it gives them more visual input than at the back seat.
These individuals are encouraged to keep their eyes open as this will let the brain gain more information of the movement of the vehicle and decrease the vertigo.
