In a surprising move, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has issued a new regulation that bans truckers from listening to Lana Del Rey’s music while on the job. According to the agency, the singer’s songs have been found to cause too much melancholy among drivers, making it difficult for them to focus on their duties and complete their routes.
The decision came after a recent study conducted by the FMCSA found that truckers who listened to Lana Del Rey’s music were more likely to report feeling sad, lonely, and even depressed while on the road. The study also found that these negative emotions often led to a decrease in productivity and an increase in accidents.
“We understand that music can be a powerful tool for keeping drivers alert and focused while on the road,” said an FMCSA spokesperson. “However, Lana Del Rey’s music has been found to have the opposite effect, causing drivers to feel down and distracted.”
The news has been met with mixed reactions from the trucking community, with some drivers expressing disappointment and others voicing their support for the ban.
“I can understand why they would want to ban Lana Del Rey’s music,” said one trucker who wished to remain anonymous. “It’s hard to stay upbeat and motivated when you’re listening to songs about heartbreak and loss all day.”
Others, however, have argued that the ban is an infringement on their personal freedom and that they should be allowed to listen to whatever music they choose.
“I don’t see why the FMCSA gets to dictate what music I listen to,” said another driver. “If Lana Del Rey’s music helps me get through a long haul, then that’s my business.”
Regardless of the debate, the ban on Lana Del Rey’s music is set to go into effect on May 1st, 2023. Until then, truckers are advised to find alternative sources of musical inspiration while on the road.
