Top 10 English songs that are best for listening while driving

A new study shows that the choice of songs you listen to while driving may affect driving safety. A fast-paced concert can make a person's heart beat faster, causing the driver to focus his main focus on the music and tend to keep accelerating in order to keep up with the rhythm of the music. The study points out that different music types have different effects on male and female drivers.

When listening to hip-hop music, female drivers will be more manic and accelerate more significantly than male drivers; males will be the fastest when they hear heavy metal music, and females will be the fastest when they listen to dance music. When listening to classical music, the driving status of male and female drivers is the most unstable.

The study named ten of the safest songs to listen to while driving, Nora Jones' Come Away With Me ranked first, and other songs on the list include Cool Play's "The Scientist" and Elton John's "Tiny Dancer". The common feature of these songs is that they have 60 to 80 beats per minute, which is close to the rhythm of a person's heartbeat.

1. Come Away With Me – Norah Jones

2. Billionaire Feat. Bruno Mars – Travie McCoy
