It happens because the body, the inner ear, and the eyes send conflicting signals to the brain. The brain cannot handle it resulting in dizziness.The vestibular system is a sensory system that is responsible for providing our brain with information about motion, head position, and spatial orientation; it also is involved with motor functions that allow us to keep our balance, stabilize our head and body during movement, and maintain posture.Some might recall earlier some had a chain attached to the body of the car which effectively touches the road. The purpose was to eliminate the static electricity build up inside the car. For some people this supposedly works. I haven't read any scientific evidence related to this though.PS: With VR motion sickness, your brain thinks you are moving, but your body is static, it creates a disconnect between the two that causes enough confusion to make you feel sick.The first thing to do is to reduce the length of your virtual reality sessions, because “significant correlations have been found between exposure time and VR sickness, with longer exposure times increasing risk of VR sickness,”  then your body will adjust to the disconnect between what your brain is experiencing and what your body is doing, but that takes time.</blockquote>
