Rideshare Driver Leg Cramps - Drivers Leg Syndrome
The Californer/10328722

LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Long drives may seem physically passive, but for many rideshare drivers, leg cramps can be an uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous issue. The root cause lies in reduced circulation and muscle inactivity. When sitting for extended periods, particularly with knees bent and feet in a fixed position on the pedals, blood flow to the lower extremities becomes restricted. This decreases oxygen and nutrient delivery to the muscles, leading to stiffness and spasms.

Additionally, the static position keeps major leg muscles like the calves and hamstrings in a shortened state, which increases the likelihood of cramping. Dehydration and electrolyte imbalances—common during travel when water intake is low—can further exacerbate muscle tightness. Stress and tension while driving also contribute, as cortisol spikes can deplete magnesium, a critical mineral for muscle relaxation.
