There is a very clear difference between great songs, and great driving songs. We've sourced Reddit for the best of the best jams to crank up to 11 while getting from point A to point B. Remember, this list is all according to Reddit, so there's no arguing with the legitimacy of these answers.
Roll the windows downs, find a back road, and cruise.
Golden Earring - 'Radar Love'
Redditor, u/antd79 was all in on this banger but did specify, "It has to be the album version with the drum solo/breakdown in the middle."
M83 - 'Midnight City'
"Just makes me think of driving through a big city for the first time and it's kinda rainy and I'm just looking out the backseat windows at all the lights and appreciating the vibe. It's a strong memory for me apparently lol." -u/craftedshadow
Don Henley - 'The Boys of Summer'
"Don Henley or the Ataris? I love both versions." -u/Tripl3Se7en
Lynyrd Skynyrd - 'Free Bird'
A shoo-in to make the top 10. But as one redditor pointed out, "Free bird if you’re looking to speed."
Tears for Fears - 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World'
"'Everybody Wants To Rule The World' - Tears for Fears... with the top down." -u/azelaya72
Kenny Loggins - 'Danger Zone'
"Listening to that in a convertible on the PCH at sunset is an out of body experience. For a couple of minutes I was Tom Cruise." -u/Dank_memes16
Van Halen - 'Panama'
"All units, this is dispatch. We got a red station wagon blasting 'Panama' and being awesome, partying and being rad." -u/mich_aeel
Foo Fighters - 'Everlong'
"'Everlong' by the Foo Fighters—perfect for summer late night driving with someone you love." -u/ArchStanton75
Queen - 'Don't Stop Me Now'
"Top Gear series 6 - the boys ran a contest asking what was the best driving song. 'Don't stop me now' by Queen won. There are some great songs on this list but this is the best." -u/JMichaelSox
Fleetwood Mac - 'The Chain'
"Fleetwood Mac - 'The Chain.'" -u/FillingUpTheDatabase. Enough said.
