Why are road trips and train trips so tiring if they mostly just involve sitting down and looking out the window?

701 views

Between a hectic day when I have to be on my feet all day and a day spent just sitting in the car or on the train and looking out the window, the latter feels 10x more exhausting.

Why is this? If you’re not the driver, you barely have to do anything on those long trips, and yet they’re still so tiring for no reason.

I’d like to add to this question because most of the answers I’ve seen so far don’t seem to address the issue where travelling is still tiring despite *sleeping during the trip*. Nor do they explain why trains and ships are so much less tiring than cars (or is that just me?).
