For many people, music is as much a part of driving as the ignition key. Get in, play your favourite song, shut out the world. But research is dispelling the myth of the harmless playlist. What we listen to in the car has a measurable influence on our driving behaviour \u2013 with consequences for safety.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Around 70 per cent of all car drivers regularly listen to music in their vehicles. It affects our mood, provides privacy in public spaces and turns even the morning commute into a little escape from everyday life. But behind this obvious fact lies an effect that science is now measuring precisely. Several meta-studies show that music influences driving performance \u2013 from reaction time and lane keeping to speed.\u00b9\u207e\u00b2\u207e The crucial question, however, is how exactly it does this!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]In the wake of your favourite song<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Whether classical, rock or electro: It doesn\u2019t depend on the genre, but rather on the so-called arousal, i.e. the inner stimulation that the music evokes.\u00b3\u207e\u00a0Simple fact: Too little stimulation makes you tired, too much stimulation makes you hectic. Both demand attention \u2013 and in traffic this naturally belongs entirely on the road.\u00b9\u207e\u2075\u207e[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

This is exactly where the myth of the positive influence of your favourite song starts to fall apart. Emotionally meaningful music captures our attention more strongly than many people realise. It triggers feelings that have nothing to do with the traffic situation, but have a direct impact on driving behaviour. Studies document longer reaction times, more erratic steering and higher speeds \u2013 especially among young people at the wheel.\u00b9\u207e\u00b2\u207e\u2075\u207e Back in 2013, Warren Brodsky demonstrated at Ben Gurion University that novice drivers, in particular, make more mistakes when listening to their favourite music \u2013 they drive more carelessly and aggressively. Stimulating music increases impulsive behaviour significantly more in them than in older people.\u2075\u207e<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]A relaxed pace is a good tactic<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is particularly interesting is that the beat often determines the speed. An analysis with AI models shows that faster speeds correlate with riskier driving behaviour. This results in more frequent lane changes, abrupt acceleration manoeuvres and increased speeds.\u2078\u207e Conversely, quiet music can increase driving stability. Music is therefore far from being a passive companion \u2013 it acts like an additional control loop in the mind. Brodsky later summed it up dramatically in an interview: \u201cThe car is the only place in the world you can die just because you\u2019re listening to the wrong kind of music.\u201d The statement dates back to 2015 \u2013 the data behind it remains current. A meta-analysis from 2019 summarises the literature as follows: \u201cMusic-listening has a statistically significant detrimental effect on driving performance.\u201d\u00b9\u207e The old advice of the Hanover-based music psychologist Reinhard Kopiez to turn down the radio in \u201cdemanding driving situations\u201d is more relevant than ever.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Don\u2019t play with the display<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Despite the influence of the choice of music, it is primarily the \u201croute\u201d to it that affects the risk when driving. Modern cockpits demand attention because touchscreens engage both the eyes and hands.\u2077\u207e Many literally lose sight of the road. Simulator studies show prolonged reactions in areas that are otherwise more commonly associated with blood alcohol levels.\u2076\u207e The European Road Safety Council sums it up: \u201cIf you control the music for just 2 seconds while driving at 63 km\/h, you have driven more than 30 metres blind.\u201d\u2079\u207e[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Wrapped \u2013 Music at the wheel<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the end, a paradoxical picture emerges: Music can reduce fatigue and prevent driving errors when played at a moderate volume.\u2074\u207e However, it can also trigger those impulses that are usually attributed to \u201ctailgaters\u201d in the left-hand lane. The playlist is therefore no longer a lifestyle accessory, but an underestimated lever in the safety concept of modern mobility.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”144px”]\n\n

\n\tStaying safe on the road with music<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Keep the volume at a moderate level<\/strong>
\nIdeal: below conversation volume (60 \u2013 70 dB)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. No music in complex situations<\/strong>
\nFor example: Navigating roadworks, busy city traffic<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Favourite songs only during quiet periods<\/strong>
\nEmotional songs can distract you from the traffic<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Set your playlist before you start driving<\/strong>
\nNo scrolling or searching while driving<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5. Voice control instead of touchscreen<\/strong>
\nHands stay on the steering wheel, eyes on the road<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1765557172681{background-color: #004666 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Good to know<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Too loud = too dangerous<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe so-called masking effect begins above 80 dB: Loud music masks outside noises such as sirens, horns or screeching tyres. Above 85 dB there is even a risk of hearing damage.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Too fast = too risky<\/strong><\/span>
\nSongs with over 120 beats per minute (BPM) lead to faster driving \u2013 on average 5 \u2013 10 km\/h above the limit. The recommended BPM range is between 60 and 80. This corresponds to the resting frequency of the heart.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Too emotional = too distracting<\/strong><\/span>
\nFavourite songs trigger feelings that have nothing to do with the driving situation; they use up mental resources. Texts, memories and strong moods distract from the traffic. Young people are particularly affected, as studies show that they tend to make more mistakes, steer more erratically and drive faster.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Too complex = too cognitively demanding<\/strong><\/span>
\nJazz, blues or improvised music with changing rhythms challenge the brain more. This increases the cognitive load \u2013 i.e. the amount of thought processes in parallel with driving. According to studies, pop music is considered safer: simple rhythms, predictable structures, few distractions.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n
