Driving means prolonged sitting and often bad posture, incl. slouching. This strains your tissues and causes lower back pain, contraction of the piriformis, buttock pain, compression of the sciatic nerve. Sometimes, it can even lead to a disc hernia!
There are different reasons why people slouch in the car. But a simple one is this: if your toes point sideways, so does your knee, which will make you slouch. Just reorient your toes and you'll be safe.
To help you keeping your toes pointing upwards, you will need to adjust your car seat, in part. the seat pan angle. This will help support your thighs, and thereby avoid that they fall sideways.
