I don't have a car now but before with my ex I normally open the radio
or put some music while riding. It can ease boredom specially while there
is a traffic on the road. Sometimes I sing also and dance .
My ex said it's good that I'm not the driver coz the car seems dancing also.
Most public transport here also listening to the music while on the road.
Sometimes it is very annoying when they full the volume and they can't
hear people who wants to go down.

I enjoy listening to music while driving. Especially if it is a long drive. I will even sing along if it is an old favorite of mine. I would think that public transit would be rather annoying if they had loud music going. You would think it would be hard for the conductor/driver to have loud music and try to know what is going on. Maybe they don't care.

There are some drivers here don't care about their passengers
sometimes the passengers got passed through the place where they want
to go down because the driver can't hear them to stop.

Buses here going to provinces have Tv 's and DVD 's, Im talking about jeepneys and tricycle that we normally used in public transfer only for short distances.

I don't mind having the radio on when I am driving but I hate it hate it if the volume is too loud, it bothers me a lot because my ear pounds. And I have the kids riding with me behind, the stereo in my car in the back is even louder so I don't turn the volume too loud, loud enough to hear is good.

Yes, especially on one of my wandering road trips at night.
Random observation: if you drive down a lonely country road at about 3 AM when there are little patches of mist floating here and there, and there are no lights in sight anywhere, and Rob Zombie's "House of 1000 Corpses" comes up on the CD player, you will start looking around and checking the rear view mirror very carefully.
Mr. Zombie isn't quite right.

No,never.In fact,I want to enjoy music while driving,but suppress my desire.Actually I have been a music lover ever since I was younger than even a teenager.I know if I listen music while driving,I would not be able to concentrate on driving which might result in an accident.That's why I never switch on my radio while driving.However I sing my favorite song,but it does not catch my attention.You know,I am not a singer.My voice is not attractive enough to get me concentrated.So it's safe.

Yes, I always turn on the radio. Once I get in the car, I will say, music please~ I like to listen to music as I can sing along and don't get bored. Sometimes, it just like you are having a karaoke box in your car and sing along with the music.(^^)

I don't always listen to music if there is only myself in the car. I like talking to my friends rather than listening to music.

I love music. Every time we have long distance travel I make sure I brought my favorite CD's on Religious songs and selection of my favorite singers with my old favorite songs . I find it relaxing and ease the boredom especially having the rough road on our way to our place of destination . I also dance and sing with the music to make myself familiarize and master the songs.

I do listen to music when I'm driving because it helps me relax when I'm in heavy traffic. I don't turn on the volume loud just enough for me to hear the music so I can still hear what's going on around me so as to avoid accidents.

That's why I wonder to those drivers how they can hear what's happening outside when they keep the volume so loud.

Dear friend,
I enjoy listening to music esepcially while driving if I am alone. Moreover I feel much enjoyable and relaxed in driving. May be at times it also depends upon my mood. It is very rare that I am not listening to music. But it would bit hesitative when loud musics are heard from other cars.

I love music that is why I bought a headset with a built-in memory. I am comfortable wearing on it because it's only a headset and there is nothing connected on it. Even the bus I ride have their own music I prepare my own favorite music when I have a trip.
When I accompanied my cousin, we always play music inside he's car.

Yes. listening to music when i drive my car is something i love. Music of my choice boosts me up and takes away the strain of driving. This soothing effect of music plays an effective role in combating the stress of heavy traffic or long distance driving. It sometimes even makes the drive a pleasant experience. luckily for me, my girl friend and even the friends i hang out with prefer the same thing and our choice of music also matches to some extent. So, all of us enjoy the drive. At the same time i am not a fan of loud, bursting , high volume music. it could be annoying most often and would aggravate the already present irritation. So even if it is rock music i would prefer listening to it in moderate volume such that it has a calming effect on me. Happy mylotting.

I also don't have a car but I would prefer to listen music while driving. Maybe not those rock genre that could be disturbing with your focus on the road. Mellow ones can be helpful. It can soothe your mood while driving especially when you are trapped on traffic. It's a good way to entertain yourself instead of heating up. Volume, too, should be on a moderate level in order to hear other people or other cars coming.
