Driving Songs

Some people listen to Rock Anthems, some R&B, some just listen to whatever is on the radio, however recent studies have conferment that you speed and driving style changes dramatically depending on what kind of music you listen to.

For example, listening to Power Metal can cause the driver to unwittingly increase his/her speed and take more daring chances while behind the wheel. Your awareness has also been shown to drop when listening to certain genres of music.

Many boy racers also use music with high base while driving because of its stereotypical image; however they may also unwittingly be increasing their chances of a fatal crash.

Another factor which also contributes to this danger factor is how loud you play your music. If you music is played too loud, you may well find yourself losing awareness of the traffic around you because you can’t hear their engine noise. This reaction is subconscious and could be very dangerous if you suddenly decide to change lanes on the spur of the moments.

So your choice of songs could well land you in a spot of bother with the Boys In Blue.
