Why would I want to play music? I enjoy driving more than listening to music. I don't get bored even when I'm driving thru heavy traffic on I-5 or I-405, so, why would I need music not being in a traffic jam and having beautiful scenery?!
- dagw 5y agoMusic while driving seems to be one those divisive subjects. Some people basically need music while driving and some people find it pointless or annoying.
- nikolay 5y agoYeah, some need country music, others - techno. I personally like to be able to hear the engine. I then wonder why race drivers don't listen to music if it has benefits to some people.
- noduerme 5y agoI grew up next to the 405, and I don't think I'd ever call the view from it beautiful! But as far as music. Yes I just want to listen to my motor sometimes. But... I probably shouldn't admit this, but the reason I love driving to loud music is that I drive to the music. I prepare different MP3 mixes for my cars. The Datsun mixes are only music from 1970 to 1983, but I rotate the bands and songs before any long drive. When certain songs really take off I shift in time - I play the car like a guitar, and inevitably I want certain songs to come on when I know I'll be on an empty stretch of road with no cops and I can drive way too fast and shoot the curves. Blasting Kansas in an 80 Datsun at twice the speed limit is probably the closest I've ever gotten to pure joy.
