Had a song on and wanted to change it. Was too focused on my phone trying to pick a song and hit the brakes too late.
After that never again.
Sometimes I prefer talk-radio, podcasts, news updates, audio books etc.
That is the only very rare case of being hungover or having migraine
sometimes i’ll honestly just talk to myself when i drive, it’s like self therapy
Because I love podcasts
1 thing ; turbo whistle
Usually it’s because I heard a noise from my car while driving, trying to hear it again to pinpoint the issue. Otherwise I have music going.
Because Music directs my attention away from the street
I haven’t put new mp3s on my usb drive in a while and I’m sick of everything on there.
Sometimes work was or is going to be so mentally exhausting, you just need a quiet ride home to decompress.
Road noise is very satisfying on its own. It gives me space to think about all the things I distract myself from thinking about most other times.
Driving and traffic have my full attention.
I prefer listening to audio books in the car.
I spend 12 hours a day in a studio surrounded by noise… sometimes I just need quiet.
I just don’t want to take the time to figure out what I want to listen to.
Some days after work on the ride home… you just need some silence. You know you aren’t going to get it at home, and you didn’t get it at work.
Sometimes a little bit of silence does more to relax you than music does.
If I’m driving with people, I turn on the music
Otherwise I keep it off. I’m always listening to music and white/pink noise, driving is one of the only parts of my day that I get silence.
I left my cell phone at home, and my car doesn’t have a stereo anymore because someone thought it was theres
Podcasts
Sometimes podcasts, sometimes silence for peace and making sure my car isn’t making weird noises.
They’re probably on a phone call. Will never understand that. Just wait until you stop driving to take a call.
My Bluetooth wasn’t working
Cause I like to listen to the sound of the car.
Well imagining your own music video to the song and eventually shit happens when you’re busy fantasizing and not paying attention to the road.
Sometimes it all starts to run together and sound the same and my brain doesn’t want to hear it anymore.
Just to annoy you. In particular.
Silence is golden.
Being in the car alone is one of the only time someone isn’t trying to talk to me.
My wife hates having music on while either of us are driving. She just does. I don’t know why. It sucks for road trips.
I legit ran out of songs to listen to
my speakers blew up
I like MPR/NPR
It’s dangerous, and it makes it harder to hear what your car is doing.
I have an audio book playing instead.
I prefer podcasts because with music I get antsy and want to change the song frequently, which isn’t ideal behind the wheel
podcasts
Because I never really cared about music.
I do it sometimes because my favorite professor challenged me to. Honestly, it lets me organize my thoughts and even makes the drive quicker
I can never get music onto my phone and switching CDs can be a pain. And of course the radio is terrible. Dedicated mp3 players…yeah i should get one
Modern Country, religious fundamentalist, and Classic Rock stations are all that we have here. If just Stairway to Heaven were to invade my cockpit (never mind the other two), either serious road rage or projectile vomiting would follow. Neither is conducive to safe driving.
I would rather think than listen to music.
I usually listen to podcasts, sometimes talk radio, sometimes music, and sometimes I just want silence. If there’s other people in the car, I’m probably talking to them.
I’m a newbie and I want to concentrate.
