The Music You Listen To Can Influence How Good Or Bad Of A Driver You Are

Can Elton Make You A
Better Driver?
Who would have thought it? New research says that which song you listen to can influence how safe a driver you are. And some of the safest artists to drive to are Elton John and Norah Jones. Their slower songs anyway. That's because, in a recent study, fast beats were found to cause excitement that caused drivers to speed up to match the beat of the song. And hip-hop made females drive more aggressively than normal.

So what are the 10 safest songs to drive to? You might be surprised. The Telegraph has the playlist you should download to be a safer driver.
