Why don't they investigate on other more important factors leading to car accidents, such as talking on mobile phones during driving for example? yeah, music may have a certain part here too( classic music makes you sleepy, hard rock on the contrary excites you too much), but, in my opinion, these are just minor damaging factors since they don't have such a big influence on human consciousness, on the contrary, they have more impact on subconsciousness.

The research above still seems incomplete to me. It doesn't clearly show whether soft/monotonous music would be more likely to make a driver drowsy or not, for instance. Too often I see radio stations broadcast at night soft music - one might hypohthesize that such music would tend to make a driver listening to it more drowsy, less alert, and hence, more likely to be involved in a car accident.

One method to complete this research might be to document what was playing in cars at the time of accidents. Was the radio on? what was the volume? was it playing in-car content (CD/DVD/etc.) or broadcast? if broadcast, was it playing a radio channel, if so, what was that channel playing, at the time of the accident and in the few minutes prior? if in-car audio, what was it playing?

If sufficient data is collected it might be possible to statistically correlate and help determine not only whether certain types of music or volume have impact on the abilities of driver's to drive better - but it will be empirical evidence of direct cause for accidents.

The power of such findings could be a clearly preventative form of accidents. If we know what sorts of music (or audio sources) are less likely to produce accidents, people would be able to "tune into them" when driving. Likewise, radio stations listened to often by drivers might focus on airing different content dependent on the time of day in order to reduce their impact on car accidents (if such an impact exists).

Note that while breath testers are calibrated in terms of blood alcohol level, that's not what they actually measure. Take a shot of your favorite booze and immediately blow a breath sample. The meter will read "Should be dead and already embalmed!" Breath testing assumes that there is no alcohol in your mouth. Some drunks will keep a sealed bottle in the car and, when stopped, crack the seal in the officer's presence and take a swig to render the field breath test invalid. It may have worked once, but cops will now arrest such people and hold them for later testing. That's assuming that you don't get the wrong cop on a bad day. "Contempt of cop" appears in no statute, but it can get you killed.

Well, these maximal doses can always be different for everybody apart, because people are very different too, besides if the man here is already used to such "procedures" ( which is the most probable by the way), his organism must have formed not only dependence, but also tolerance for alcohol, so it isn't surprising. But that doesn't mean he's going to live on healthy if he continues like this, so, people, don't try to follow his example and break the records!

I am 62 with no mentrual cycle but I have a lot of nightmares - or wild dreams. I usually dream I have to go somewhere in a hurry (airport for example) and cannot get there for various reasons or am looking after a crowd of people and have to find sleeping accommodation for them in a small house. I remember putting one friend in the bathroom to sleep. I have a stressful job with a boss who is a perfectionnist so perhaps this is why.
