I can listen to a song while coding. I can't listen to a podcast while coding. A podcast demands way more attention than a song. 1.2 million people die in road

  Are you saying you can't drive a car if passengers are talking? If that's the case, maybe a driver's license isn't your thing?

  That's a hypothesis but not evidence. I can present a counter-hypothesis: I fall asleep while listening to music (or staying in silence). Listening to spoken word keeps me awake or at least helps me notice that I'm getting tired. 1.2 million people die in road accidents, and most of them are children and young people. Even more are seriously injured.
