I wouldn't but I'm sure some of my deaf friends ride a bike and drive a car. You are going to have to do what you got to do. I like the mini speaker suggestion. I use to play songs from my cellphone on speaker while riding. Although it was low, I felt comfortable with it being it that volume. On the other hand, someone that would hear you coming down the road with music would be more incline to see you vs. nothing. Good luck.
