1. Lowering The Volume So You Can See Better

had you ever been rocking to a music and turned into a parking lot where you had to turn down the volume to locate a parking spot? Though psychologically you believe it helps, turning the volume down clearly does not improve your vision. This odd habit is more prevalent than you might believe. Our brains seem to be trying to cut sensory input so that we might concentrate better on the current visual choreography. Many of us swear by this approach when negotiating difficult parking or looking for an elusive address, even if there is no scientific proof that decreasing the music actually enhances our vision. It's not only confined to driving either; you could find yourself acting in the same manner when attempting to interpret difficult directions or study a map. This quirk is the ideal illustration of how our brains generate these strange links that, although illogical, somehow feel correct to us. The next time you squint to read a street sign and find yourself reaching for the volume knob, stop and laugh at this common human peculiarity.
