What else am I to do between the hours of 6pm and 11pm? Lol

It's because the brain cannot multitask. If it's music on the radio, it's usually pop or similar which has lyrics and you cannot process words while also concentrating on parking.

Every time. When I approach heavy traffic, drive in a city I am not familiar with and when parking.

I do the same. The noise reduction helps me concentrate. Often times when I'm at home at night and hear a strange sound, I will turn off the lights in order to hear better.

It's called sensory overload.

Back up until you hear a crunch (or a scream).

Yep. I always turn down the sound when I need to concentrate on the road. Husband laughs, but it helps me.

Keep telling yourself that.

It doesn't help me see better, it helps me concentrate.

I've never done this and have never seen anyone doing this. Is this really a thing?

I used to tell my kids they had to be quiet because the hard parts on the mountain roads were just ahead. The road was literally like two parking places wide, cut into the side of a mountain with a straight drop off to the river 100 meters down with lumber trucks coming at you and crazy people who think because their RV is the biggest one possible, that it is OK to use both lanes. Nightmare hwy.

Music distracts from noticing things. So turning the music off would help the person focus.

I do this when I Smell something weird in my car.

I get motion sick, and I often think it is the radio and parking that contributes, because it is all too much going on.

I never realized I did this until I read about people doing this

I never understood this one

If only mythbusters was still going we could find out.

I’ve never done this or even thought about doing it. Apparently I’m the weirdo!

It's distracting!! I guess, since I'm old now, if music is playing, and I'm trying to do something that needs me to focus, the music Must be turned down. I also have ADHD. I'm Easily distracted, and will make a wrong turn, or mess it up if I can't focus. Call me weird, but, that's me. Who else has This problem?

I do this when i need to concentrate more.

Depends...are dents & dings acceptable? 😅😂🤣

Well lowering the volume of the music helps concentrate on the parralel parking. Especially woman seem to have a harder time parralel parking. Study has shown that had to do with the way our brains function a little bit differently. Didn't make this one up. It's a scientifically proven fact, sorry.

That's BS

I've always done this just to remove distractions so I can focus better. It's amazing how much you can spot your peripheral vision because you now have less sound to distract you and home in on something before you can get a chance to see it. It's like side scan radar.

Don't be silly, I do that when I'm trying to smell something. Is that burned plastic smell inside the car? No, it's the whole world

I don't like the radio on or music playing.

I actually lose. A lot. I decide that neither side of my brain is correct

Music, voice mail, tv show all of them need repeated far more times than I’d like to admit

I live in a small town and if I stopped to talk to everyone I know I would never get anything done. Sometimes I pretend not to see but mostly I just starting walking really fast like I am in a massive rush and wave as I hurry past.

If you did start to read them by the time you'd finish the newer version or model would be out and the one you are about to use would be obsolete.

Being on here.

Sure I have no feeling in my hands and I dislocated a shoulder but I got it all in on one trip

When I was younger I did this, but not anymore. It's important to put everything where it needs to be to first time. I have no problem extending this same courtesy to everyone.

I find it funny when you see someone alone sitting or standing still, the phone rings and the suddenly they walk about 10 miles during the call in a 5 meter radius

Well I wouldn't know, I'm a child👶

"Would it really be that horrible to just decline an offer by responding, "No thanks" No, but 9/10 don't accept that as an answer.

YES

I work from home and live alone and I do feel immense relief when the house is empty when I come home from work.

All the time.

Pulling your pants down, realizing you forgot your phone, and duck waddling to get it.

Hey, I just like to finish what I start 🤷🏼‍♂️

Circle around to the aisle in a few minutes.

What about mental illnesses????

I’ve done this one with my glasses on my face

This is normal behavior! Got a tune in my head and a pep in my step🤣♥️.

The monkey towel in the bathroom hates me and likes to watch me take a c**p >:(
