Listening to Music in a Car with a Mourner

Question

I am in a year of mourning, and my children travel with me in the car and want to listen to music. What should I do?

Answer

Hello, 

Others are permitted to listen to music near the mourner, and the mourner is allowed to be there, intending not to derive enjoyment.
