Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Driving phobia. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

What is the proper name for this condition?

On PubMed, "driving phobia" appears 20 times, "driving anxiety" appears 20 times as well.

"amaxophobia" and "vehophobia" do not appear at all. "amaxophobia" apparently means the fear of traveling in a car, not to a fear of driving.

Among review articles only, PMID  28636768 uses both "driving anxiety" and "driving phobia". PMID  9606576 uses "driving phobia", but it's only referring to the fear following a car accident. PMID  12113199 uses "driving-related fear (DRF)".

DSM-5 and ICD-10-CM don't appear to have anything related.

People with the condition refer to it as "driving anxiety". Isabela31 ( talk) 18:28, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply
