Does music make you speed?
Unfortunately, metal makes me more aggressive when I don't keep myself in check. I've noticed if I listen to ATB or something while I'm driving I'm a lot more chilled out.
Eh, I get into music.

My first and only time ever getting a ticket (3 years ago, which also explains the music selection), I was listening to Kid Rock "fxck you". I don't let music control me anymore, if anything, I chill out when listening to music now.
Sometimes when I'm listening to music I get fired up and drive a bit faster, but I'm certainly not the douche on the freeway weaving in and out of cars in his chevy cobalt (the absolute definition of "underwhelming") because the latest remix of "ice ice baby" finally became available on his LG chocolate.
Might be the chicken and the egg too. Maybe I just turn on the music when I'm already feeling like I'm fired up/excited.

Hands down it does! Especially techno/club music...I have those songs used in the Redline vids on a cd in my car, and I can tell you when they come on
...well, of course I personally never speed
but uh...others I know...they tend to drop the tach.

I challenge anyone who is cruising to crank the volume on this. As long as you don't concentrate on your speed, I'd bet if you looked down at your spedometer when it ends, you'd be going 5-10mph faster than when you started.

yup.. depending on the music and my mood, it will definitely make me drive faster. thus the reason I keep some old skool Clapton blues in the changer for when I'm stuck in traffic and want to start pushing cars out of my way. Just switch over to that disc and I'm in no hurry anymore.
I fly with loud music however the space where the factory bose sub was sucks *** and rattles like a flag in a hurricane, the license plate vibrates so loud, it just buzzes like mad when i crank it, Any suggestions to reduce horrible rear deck rattle and that plastic bezel around the opening when you fold down the seats. And no, dynomat wont work there.

On topic, trance keeps me relaxed. Drum & Bass, Rock, or hardcore Rap will get me to speed or drive aggressively.
Very very true. Music does influence your driving, much like it does how you're feeling.
'I Got Shot In The Face' (hardcore band) makes me drive SO fast. So good!
www.myspace.com/igotshotintheface listen to 'You Dead'
but, if im crusing downtown with the guys, its gotta be some illmatic beats. slow loud and banging is where its at.

me no,I think if you check the ages of the people responding,the higher speed being affected by music,is more true the younger you are,not so much the music,no offense you younger max fanatics; we'd be nowhere without your passion!
