It's safe to assume you don't drive and listen to music or drive and talk with a passenger since both those lead to possibly zoning out and/or dulling senses.
There is no difference between listening to music in a car and listening to it on a bike. In fact, the car dulls senses more since it insulates sound. On a bike even with ear buds, I can hear everything around me.
