Comfort and Convenience
On a shared morning run, quiet suits someone preparing for work, while talk suits someone who wants company on the same stretch of road.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before a night airport run, it helps to learn the lighting controls so they can be used on a dark driveway without a pause.
Multimedia and Connectivity
If music is the companion on a solo evening drive, starting the album before moving avoids reaching for a phone at each set of lights.
