It's not smart and I don't get how apparently many people don't have music in their cars.

It's probably not any less distracting to have your speakers turned all the way up, hth

why do you even need music just enjoy the experience of driving

I do it when I'm getting in and out of the car rapidly and I'm listening to a podcast or audiobook I don't want to interrupt. Also I guess I just like to have my holes plugged because sometimes i leave earbuds in even when i'm not listening to anything.

If to live in this style is to be eccentric, it must be confessed that there is something good in eccentricity.

Driving is so boring; I literally fall asleep whenever I have to do it.
Endangering myself and those around me.

I agree, OP.

I mean I understand why you would want to block out the noise of car horns from other drivers, but that doesn't make it right.

Ear buds block out outside noise and driving with your subwoofer wrecking nearby windows is rad as gently caress so I'm afraid your opinion is wrong

When I drove a 1991 Toyota Corolla(in my possession from 1992 to 2013) I would regularly drive with earbuds in because my radio was broken.
I never had a problem with hearing things going on around me. I just had regular earbuds that rest on your ear, not the in your ear type.
It's legal in my state: http://drivinglaws.aaa.com/tag/headsets/

I have friends who would regularly comment about how dangerous that was and how I couldn't hear things around me like ambulances.
If I pointed out that deaf people can drive they would usually say that it's different.

Now that I have a new car with working radio and the ability to play MP3s, I haven't driven with earbuds in a while.

I commute on my motorcycle and always listen to podcasts in my earbuds while I do. If I'm going for a ride for fun, then I throw on some good tunes and really get in the groove. There's something special about listening to a good playlist while riding the Big Sur coastline in the early morning.
