"An experiment has revealed the best and worst songs to drive to. Price comparison website Confused.com conducted the study, which highlights the way music can affect a person&amp;#039;s driving.  The experiment saw four male and four female drivers drive 250 miles each to measure their driving skills, and then a further 250 miles listening to different playlists each, with the Confused.com MotorMate app activated to monitor any changes in their driving abilities. The playlists consisted of heavy metal, dance, hip-hop and classical music. It was found that the different music styles impacted on people&amp;#039;s driving. For example, a female driver listening to the hip-hop playlist drove more aggressively than her male counterpart, who came out as an &amp;quot;average&amp;quot; driver. The heavy metal playlist caused the male driver to drive quicker than other members of the group, and the same affect was seen with the female who listened to the dance playlist. Dr Simon Moore of London&amp;#039;s Metropolitan University, who worked on the study, stated: &amp;quot;55 to 65 decibels is the optimum music volume for driving... [and] the optimum tempo of a song for safe driving should mimic the human heartbeat at round 60 to 80 beats per minute. &amp;quot;A fast tempo can cause people to subconsciously speed up to match the beat of the song.&amp;quot; Confused.com has compiled a playlist of the ultimate safe driving songs based on Moore&amp;#039;s findings: - Come Away with Me - Norah Jones - Billionaire feat. Bruno Mars - Travie McCoy - I&amp;#039;m Yours - Jason Mraz - The Scientist - Coldplay - Tiny Dancer - Elton John - Cry Me a River - Justin Timberlake - I Don&amp;#039;t Want to Miss a Thing - Aerosmith - Karma Police - Radiohead - Never Had a Dream Come True - S Club 7 -.
