Professional drivers will tell you that sounds can prevent accidents.
You can hear most motorcycles before you see them.
The screeching of tires can alert you to a possible accident nearby.
With the sound off in the vehicle, you can listen to the sounds of the vehicle which may indicate something is wrong.
All this while scanning traffic all around and making sure movements match sounds.
That's why they're called "professional" drivers.
It's a good thing that professional drivers can utilize sounds in that way. Unlike in the case of other drivers, some get startled by alarming sounds instead of using it as a signal.
