Ask your surgeon about lying down in a van, I somehow don't think that's a good idea. I mean the middle seats of a van. You don't want to roll around either, best to be seated and restrained by a seat belt. My incision is on my back, along my spine. You're not supposed to lie on your incision for the first few weeks. So in bed I lay on one side or the other, not a stable position if you're lying down in a moving car - you'll roll around. Your doctor might have some suggestions about cars.
