That is because it is illegal to drive whilst wearing headphones in Spain.
TikTok user Ana Gildersleeve uploaded a video detailing the ‘weird laws you should know about’ for Spain as she opened up on life in the Mediterranean.
Having moved to the United States, she found the time to share some of her knowledge from back home with her 245,800 followers.
And her post gained plenty of attention when she included the law around wearing headphones whilst driving.
The law divided opinion but plenty were in favour of it being introduced.
One user commented: “The head phones drive should be everywhere!! its soo dangerous”.
Another said: “Driving with headphones in Colorado is a big no-no. It’s a bigger fine than smoking with kids in your car”.
A third agree, saying: “These actually make sense”.
Spanish driving law states that mobile phones should not be used whilst driving unless it is a hands free device.
Like in the United Kingdom, though, listening to the radio or connecting to your car via bluetooth or an aux cord is allowed.
But RAC Shop add that “you cannot use headphones or earpieces or you will face a €200 fine.”
Driving in flip-flops and naming your child Cain, Judas or Lenin is also forbidden.
It was previously reported how Spanish law states that you are not allowed to get behind the wheel if you are topless.
Wearing “inappropriate” clothes could see holidaymakers slapped with a £170 bill, with Brits warned not to strip off in the heat,
It is also illegal to walk around in public in your swimwear, with Spanish officials ready to hand out a £250 fine if they catch anybody doing it.
Frank, who runs stag and hen dos in Benidorm, included it as one of the must know rules for Brits visiting the Spain on his Tik Tok page.
