Every single day I see people wearing headphones while they are driving.
Some are easy to spot as they have those horrible white Apple earbuds in both their ears. I assume they're listening to some equally terrible music on their iPod. I also see drivers wearing earbuds or canal phones with an in-line microphone talking on the phone while they are driving (then again I suppose they could be having an animated discussion with themself, an invisible person or imaginary friend while wearing driving with those things in their ears).
Legality aside, does anyone else have a problem with people wearing headphones while attempting to operating a motor vehicle? I've set up a poll.
Yes there are existing threads on this but I'm not digging them up. And yes, deaf people can drive a car, drivers can be distracted by their passengers, heck I've even been in a car where the driver was trying to read a book but I'm not interested in any of that stuff.
