The arcing of the engine is electrical pollution. The problem is
more likely due to this than to static. When I was at my most sensitive, I
could not ride in the front seat of a vehicle, or be near an operating fan
(brushes in the motor) or vehicle sound system. Even now I use the fan only when
absolutely necessary, and don't play tapes, etcetera, unless my husband is
driving and I am in the back seat.
If you feel better when you sit in back and avoid the fan and sound
system, then the problem is not static but high frequencies.
Getting out and walking around may result in your feeling better just
because you are no longer being exposed to those frequencies.
Another problem in vehicles is that the AC/heating systems create
positive ion air. This in itself makes many people feel quite ill. And dopey!
