Stig-OT-Dump said:I don't know if I agree with the deafness analogy. Deaf people have impaired hearing / can't hear. It is a permanent state that causes the person to develop different coping mechanisms to compensate. Listening to music / radio / podcasts through earphones is actively distracting and focuses your attention "elsewhere" - it is in no way comparing like with like.
Yep, let remove all in car HiFi equipment, lets face it someone piloting >1 ton of metal is far more of a risk than some piloting 14Kg of bicycle...
