Time Travel Is Possible.

In a way, driving (or any form of movement) can be considered a form of “time travel” into the future, albeit at a normal rate. Here’s how it can be viewed from the perspective of physics and relativity:

1. Time Dilation:
   • According to Einstein’s theory of Special Relativity, time passes at different rates for observers moving relative to each other. This effect becomes significant only at speeds close to the speed of light. For everyday speeds, such as driving a car, the effect is so minuscule that it is imperceptible.
   • However, technically, when you drive a car, time for you moves slightly slower compared to someone who is stationary. This means that if you drive very fast for a long period and then compare clocks with someone who stayed still, you would find that a tiny fraction of a second has passed more slowly for you.
2. Practical Experience:
   • In a more colloquial sense, when you drive, you are moving through space and time from one point to another. While this isn’t time travel in the science fiction sense (like traveling to the past or future beyond the normal flow of time), you are experiencing the passage of time differently due to your motion.
3. Relativity in Practice:
   • In everyday life, the effects of time dilation are so small that they are usually negligible. However, for astronauts traveling at high speeds in space, these effects become more noticeable. For instance, astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) experience time slightly slower than people on Earth due to their high velocity and the weaker gravitational field.

While driving can be seen as a form of moving through time, it’s not the kind of time travel that allows you to visit different points in history or the future. It’s more about the subtle effects of relativity that become more pronounced at higher speeds or in stronger gravitational fields.
