Listening to music while you drive is distracting - right? Wrong!


We deal with a lot of distractions while we drive - but listening to music isn’t one of them.

A new study found that listening to music while we drive can actually enhance our performance. They tested a group of drivers with and without music and those with the radio on actually had faster response time to sudden changes on their simulated course. 

There is a catch though. No changing stations! The musical group may have outperformed their quiet counterparts but there was no adjusting the radio or fooling with playlists allowed.
