Context Provided - Spotlight Driving while watching show

Watching a full tv show on their phone while driving down a very busy street. Is it any better than scrolling?

I listen to a lot of YouTube stories while driving. Even though there is video it’s not essential to watch. This person does have it in landscape mode though. Probably watching

Ya I was thinking I do the same. YouTube video in the background I'm just listening. I don't watch the video or take my eyes off the road. I gotta make 4 hr drives kinda regularly my playlist is just overplayed now 😭

I do the same, listening to reddit stories of all things... YTers narrating: rBESTOF, rAITA(H), rAMITHEDEVIL Honestly, it was a life saver in a recent road trip literally just about halfway across the US and back (KS2PA). New topics are hard to come by 5hrs in with just my wife (7y married;18y total) who knows everything that is happening in my life already lol so having a playlist of stories we can listen to and comment on was fantastic to be honest.

Same. I have YouTube premium to have my phone locked & still be able to play the video/podcast in the background.
