Warren Brodsky

Driving With Music: Cognitive-Behavioural Implications (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Does listening to music while driving a car enhance driver safety or place the driver at increased risk of accidents? This is the first full-length text to explore the subject. A great deal of work has been done to investigate and reduce driver distraction and inattention, but this book is the first to focus on in-cabin aural backgrounds of music as a contributing factor to human error and traffic violations.
