ABSTRACT
This chapter will first look at efforts to promote safe driving through music choice. Wiser selection of music pieces has been advocated via popular news media, the electronic media, and social media. In addition, the chapter points to volume adjustment and control as a method to adapt to high-demand driving conditions. After considering both as a means for increasing driver safety, a list of applied recommendations are presented. Finally, the chapter describes a research attempt to account for the dynamic temporal flow that is required to achieve functional congruency between the aural conditions of driving and the critical perceptual/ motor tasks necessary for safely operating a motorcar; this platform and music programme was developed by Brodsky (Brodsky & Kizner, 2012; Brodsky & Slor, 2013) as a background for driving a vehicle is presented.
