一项最新研究显示，开车时收听的歌曲选择可能会影响驾驶安全程度。快节奏的音乐会使人心跳加快，从而导致驾驶者将主要的注意力集中在音乐上，并倾向于不断加速以便跟上音乐的节奏。该研究指出，不同音乐类型对男女驾驶者的影响也有所不同。在收听嘻哈音乐时，女性驾驶者会比男性驾驶者更狂躁、加速更明显;男性在听到重金属音乐时车速最快，女性听舞曲的时候车速最快。听古典音乐时，男女驾驶者的驾车状态最不稳定。该研究评出了十首开车时收听最安全的歌曲，诺拉?琼斯的《Come Away With Me》位列第一，其他上榜的歌曲还有酷玩乐队的《The Scientist》，以及埃尔顿?约翰的《Tiny Dancer》等。这些歌曲的共同特点是每分钟有60到80个节拍，跟人的心跳节奏接近。
开车时收听最安全的十首歌：
1. Come Away With Me – Norah Jones
2. Billionaire Feat. Bruno Mars – Travie McCoy
3. I’m Yours – Jason Mraz
4. The Scientist – Coldplay
5. Tiny Dancer – Elton John
6. Cry Me a River – Justin Timberlake
7. I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing – Aerosmith
8. Karma Police – Radiohead
9. Never Had a Dream Come True – S Club 7
10. Skinny Love – Bon Iver 三立教育
The choice of CD for a long car journey has long been the cause of family
friction. But new research has revealed that which song drivers listen to can even
influence how safe they are on the roads.
Among the top ten safest songs to drive to are Come Away With Me by Norah
Jones, I Don't Want to Miss a Thing by Aerosmith and Tiny Dancer by Elton John。
Each of the songs have an optimum tempo of a song for safe driving, mimicing
the human heartbeat at around 60 to 80 beats per minute。
The Scientist by Coldplay and Justin Timberlake's Cry Me a River also appeared
in the top 10.
The study, conducted at London Metropolitan University, also revealed the
type of songs that cause motorists to drive dangerously。
Unsurprisingly, music that is noisy, upbeat and increases a driver's heart rate
can be a deadly mix。
Fast beats cause excitement that can lead people to concentrate more on the
music than on the road and to speed up to match the beat of the song。
Genres of music were also measured during the experiment and revealed
variations between male and female drivers。
Hip-hop made a female driver drive far more aggressively, breaking harder and
accelerating faster, than her male counterpart. The heavy metal playlist caused the
fastest driving among males in the group while the dance playlist had the same
effect among women。 三立教育
The male and female drivers who listened to the classical playlist drove the
most erratically。
The experiment involved eight people driving 500 miles each using the
MotorMate app, which monitored driving behaviour through GPS
technology。
