Modern cars are computers on wheels that send home nonstop telemetry about you. In this post I remove my 2024 RAV4 Hybrid's modem and GPS to prevent that :)
It is against traffic laws to be wearing anything on your ears in many places. I got pulled over in Colorado in around 2010 for having one ear of a wired headset on. Didn’t get a ticket, but still sucked.
It’s something about being able to hear sirens and stuff around you. It’s dumb because people will blast music as loud as they want but having one ear covered gets you in trouble.
Yeah I’m sure those laws only exist in states where no one has taken the extra time and money to challenge them, because they’re obviously inconsistent and unjust.
Bluetooth phone calls?
I suppose, though a BT headset seems less intrusive

Deaf people can drive though
Oh, I know. And I wonder how many people with large hearing aids get pulled over too.
Deaf people spend their entire live deaf and they adapt. They don’t suddenly become deaf when they start driving.
Some drivers suddenly become deaf but don’t suddenly stop driving though too.
Except for the ones that don’t. Do you really not know about hearing loss?

Agreed. That sounds like needless legislation.
More to do with the Doppler effect than anything dealing with sound deadening. You also don’t point the pipes the direction your going .
Don’t give those assholes any ideas.
Even if they did, it would work terribly.
