This book, the first full-length text on the subject, explores the everyday use of music listening while driving a car. It presents the relationship between cars and music in an effort to understand how music behaviour in the car can either enhance driver safety or place the driver at increased risk of accidents. A great deal of work has been done to investigate and reduce driver distraction and inattention, but this book is the first to focus on in-cabin aural backgrounds of music as a contributing factor to human error and traffic violations. Driving With Music begins by outlining the automobile, its relationship to society, and the juxtaposition of music with the automobile as a complete package. It then highlights concepts from the fields of music perception and cognition, and, within this framework, looks at the functional use of background music in our everyday lives. Driver music behaviours - both adaptive and maladaptive - are explored, with the focus on contradictions and ill-effects of in-car music listening. To conclude, implications, applications and countermeasures are suggested.

"...a noteworthy step forward for research into a rich area for transport psychology and ergonomics. For audiophiles interested in transport research, I would recommend picking up this work as a thought-provoking collection of studies."
―Ergonomics, May 2016
"With this book, Brodsky takes us through all aspects of driving while listening to music, in a very informative and interesting manner.By reading this book you will get a nuanced, detailed, informative picture of driving with music, both the positive and the negative sides of it, plus potential ways to bypass the negative effects of driving with music, and enhance the positive effects."
―Transport Reviews, August 2015
"We see the motivation that inspired the book―promoting safer driving through careful selection of music and its volume... Based on his research, that of many others, and on reports from several insurance companies, Brodsky presents a list of recommendations for using music to improve safety...The book ends with a call for recognition that driving with music can be beneficial, but this needs to be understood in terms of sensible musical selection and appropriate operation of the audio system."
―Psychomusicology: Music, Mind, and Brain, October 2016
"Overall, the scope of the book is impressive and Driving with music: Cognitive-behavioural implications offers much for those researching in the social and applied psychology of music to think about. It is clear that "cars and music" is both an area of great importance and also an area ripe and ready for additional research. Therefore, this book will serve as a useful foundation for future research. As Brodsky states: "as long as automobiles are accessible to consumers, drivers will always be cruising down some roadway with their favourite playlist of tracks blasting out of the cabin speakers in full volume, as the croon away in the best of karaoke style" (p. 36), making it important that we understand our relationship with music in the car."
