What can you discover using your hearing while driving?

While driving, hearing can make you attentive:

• When another driver honks, accelerates or brakes.
• When an emergency vehicle with its sirens on is nearby.
• When something is wrong with the car, such as a poorly tensioned alternator belt.
• When you happen to drift onto a shoulder rumble strip at the side of the road.
• When the road surface condition changes.
• When you shift to the wrong gear.
