Get out of the car frequently to stretch and move about.

When you're not driving, you can also perform some exercises in the car, such as wriggling your toes and flexing and twisting your feet. Your legs' blood flow will be maintained, which will lessen any stiffness and soreness. Additionally, using compression stockings for lengthy (4+ hour) automobile trips can improve blood flow to the legs and reduce the risk of blood clots during pregnancy.

Driving during Pregnancy can cause fatigue and vertigo, so it's crucial to stay hydrated and consume natural energy-boosting foods like fruit and almonds while traveling by automobile.

Wear your seatbelt with the lap strap over your pelvis under your bump, not across it, and the cross strap between your breasts to keep the air flowing during driving.
