Want to drive safely? Listen to Elton John, Aerosmith or S Club 7
The choice of CD for a long car journey has long been the cause of family friction. But new research has revealed that which song drivers listen to can even influence how safe they are on the roads.
Among the top ten safest songs to drive to are Come Away With Me by Norah Jones, I Don't Want to Miss a Thing by Aerosmith and Tiny Dancer by Elton John.
Each of the songs have an optimum tempo of a song for safe driving, mimicing the human heartbeat at around 60 to 80 beats per minute.
The Scientist by Coldplay and Justin Timberlake's Cry Me a River also appeared in the top 10.
The study, conducted at London Metropolitan University, also revealed the type of songs that cause motorists to drive dangerously.
Unsurprisingly, music that is noisy, upbeat and increases a driver's heart rate can be a deadly mix.

1. Come Away With Me – Norah Jones
