    @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.

    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.

    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.
