Exactly, I can't stand silence, I have to have some noise in my car. Now, I don't turn it up so loud I can't hear anything outside, and if I did I wouldn't think I'd have any eardrums left yet - but I find it more relaxing.
One thing I will partially agree on - I tend not to listen to "talkie" radio when driving (unless it's the GP on 5Live). Firstly, you have to concentrate more on the radio to understand it, taking some concentration off the road; and secondly you do have to have it loud to hear it against the road noise etc...
