                                I do find myself driving very fast when listening to good old rock/metal. Metallica, AC/DC, Zep, to name a few. Not so sure about Springsteen, but to each their own.

                                                I don't think music effects driving. I drive fast listing to the conan the barbarian sound track. The problem is the slow speed limits. Come on great grandpa can't drive 55 no more. now why shouldn't i be able to drive 95.

                                                  My music choices don't seem to effect my speed, got my first ever speeding ticket[we don't have to count warnings, yes?] having to endure some boyband or Spears[not my choice], got my second, hmm, think that one was Led, and geez my first and hopefully only bambi mauling, opera was on the channel.
