There is one sure-fire thing that can poison what could be a lovely relationship: personal listening preferences and the fight over them. For decades, men and women have argued continuously over which Radio station to listen to while driving. And it doesn't matter what age they are because the older the couple, the more set in their ways and the worse it becomes.

He wants to hear Rock.
She wants to hear the Hits.

He wants to hear Talk.
She wants to hear Oldies.

He wants to hear National Public Radio.
She wants to hear Religious.

Forget drivers distracted by cell phones or hot-headed road rage incidents. The most dangerous thing on the highway is that couple in the fast lane, arguing over the Radio, pushing the presets and swerving at 75 miler-per-hour! The only really fair way to settle this issue once-and-for-all, is to require all drivers to simply obey the soon-to-be-posted Radio limits I have decided on that should be dictated by law.
