Motoring Brits Like Their Meat Loaf
In a recent survey of 2,000 British drivers, Meat Loaf’s well-known hit song "Bat Out of Hell" was voted to be the best song to listen to while driving. The larger-than-life American rocker edged out Queen hit "Bohemian Rhapsody," which came in second.
Not surprisingly, the survey also found that the music a driver is listening to can influence the speed they choose to drive.
What was a bit surprising, however, was that blues fans were the ones most likely to be caught speeding. I would have suspected heavy metal fans or jazz fusion fans due to the intensity of their chosen music.
Drivers listening to talk radio were less likely to be caught speeding which is understandable. No word on those who choose to listen to the sound of silence when they hit the road.
