      it’s really not though. it’s way easier to just not put on headphones than it is to put on headphones and prove you had them in pass through sound mode

        I think they meant open ear style headphones / earbuds, not closed ear ones with pass-through function.

        Personally, despite having a pair of those, and they are great, I still prefer using the car’s speakers while driving, but that’s me.

      • You make it seem like someone would put on their headphones just for the ride. They would have them on already before hand. And they would keep them on afterwards.

        Especially in a vehicle that doesn’t have a radio

          why would we make driving rules surrounding that exactly one vehicle doesn’t have speakers and some headphones have passthrough?

          • Yes, cause we know for the rest of history this will be the ONLY car that does this. Technology never follows through with removing stuff like other have.

            On a side note, how’s your headphone jack doing on your phone?

      Make sure you say that to the cop while he writes your ticket

      • You know whats crazy? I’ve been practicing a lot recently, and I can take off my headphones in less than a minute. I know that’s absolutely insane and kinda unbelievable, but it’s true. Maybe one day it’ll even be so easy it only takes a fraction of a second to take them out.

        One can only hope!!
