@randomfrequency,
it's illegal in America to ride a bike with headphones on? It's not
illegal here as far as I'm aware, just inadvisable for the obvious
reasons.
I guess I could believe it's illegal though, this from the
country trying to make crossing the road with headphones on
illegal.
its illegal in at least Georgia and Ontario to operate any
(motor) vehicle while impaired by headphones. Its hard to find
specifics about it with a cursory on google, but people have
claimed to have been pulled over while wearing one earbud.

nothing that can impair your hearing or judgement, while operating a vehicle. Its the same argument for cell phones in cars.

may not be illegal, but it certainly is very stupid.

@randomfrequency, agreed, but then people with half a brain know to Stop, Look and Listen.
