    Do I need to be afraid of getting car sick ?
    Community Answer
    If you've gotten carsick in the past, it's a good idea to prepare just in case you get motion sickness again. There are medications that can help with it, so you may want to talk to your parents to see if there's anything you can take. Sitting next to a window can help, but you may want to try to sleep through the ride to avoid getting sick.
