In Australia, wearing headphones while driving is generally frowned upon and often illegal because it can impair your ability to hear emergency vehicles, horns, or other important sounds. Laws vary slightly by state, but the gist is that your auditory awareness should not be compromised behind the wheel. If caught, you might face fines and demerit points, which could ruin your day faster than a pothole at 100 km/h.
So, while you might want to drown out your mother-in-law’s nagging with your favourite tunes, it’s best to stick to your car’s audio system and keep those ears free.
