Take a small exercise ball and put it behind you in the car seat. Put the seat all the way back and lay it totally down. Lift the back of your shirt so the ball "sticks" to your back and it actually feels like it's decompressing you over bumps in the road.
Sometimes it needs to be adjusted by pushing the ball lower into the small of the back.
It works for me and I have as bad a back as anyone.
