aamfs94,
A car's brakes cannot cause a stopping action of more than 1 G. That has been tested. The tires are the limiting factor.
It takes 60 Gs to cause a mild concussion. 1 G has no risk to the brain.
The whip into the locked seatbelt could strain your neck and cause a headache.
Your anxiety can cause symptoms like a headache.
Unless you car or your head smashes into something, you cannot sustain the Gs required to cause a concussion when a car stops or slows down.
Please disregard Caroline2. She does not know anything about concussions.
Just relax. Avoid the pain meds.
