I've noticed the relationship between driving and music for years but was thinking more about it today when rushing to one of the offices. I was listening to dance music and driving very fast and I always tend to drive fast when its dance music.
If I listen to something more chilled like Air or something more mellow like David Gray, I drive more relaxed and thoughtfully.
I think this applies to feelings in general when listening to music, if depressed it's probably best not to listen to Nirvana or something like that. Although you do understand what Kurt Cobain was on about when listening while feeling down.
Music can help change your mood but it doesn't always work. I've tried listening to Dance music when unhappy but it can just magnify the feeling and make you even more angry, which isn't good when it makes you drive fast.
That's enough of my ramblings, I know what I'm on about but it probably makes no sense to anyone else.
