When I ask my doctor at the time , He said that it was my Stop- Go mechanism as it should be automatic I've been driving over 35 years.
Any thoughts as to what part of the brain that may involve?
But as I read the this thread , I get pannicked whenever I get the feeling I can't recognize my suroundings and yes their is an entire Internal dialog going on the whole time.While I try to talk myself through it of curse it doesn't make sense, till it's over.
I've read jamais vu is a feature of seizures in the temporal lobe, but I did some reading today, and scientists aren't really sure where it stems from in the brain.

Jamais vu can result from seizures, but also brain fatigue too -- like when you read a word over and over that it loses all meaning. I've had it happen to me, but not in the extreme the way it happens to you or my partner.
