Does it and you inside shrink...?

If in your moronic, babbling way you are asking does length contraction
occur while driving a car, the answer is yes.
However if you read the page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Length_contraction
and plug some numbers into the equations there, you will find that the contraction is FAR too small to be noticed at speeds less than about 30,000,00 mph.
You are still an illiterate moron but the good news is that in only 6
more weeks you will be gone for good.

I'm not sure what 30,000,00 means: a missing zero or a misplaced comma? Anyway, your point is perfectly valid, and it is illuminating for
everyone, not just babbling morons, to put some numbers into the
equations. For v/c = 0.5, for example, 1 - v^2/c^2 = 0.75; sqrt = 0.86.
So even at half the speed of light the contraction is only 14% -- not negligible, certainly, but much smaller than one might guess.

What motions will cause length contraction?
Do all motions contract length?
What about rotation?
No. There is nothing about motion that could cause
distance or length to go away... or come back.
