History of the Car Radio – It’s an almost universal experience: People get in the car and turn on their favorite music. But the first car radio wasn’t sold until 1922. And at first, radios in cars weren’t a popular feature. In 1930, laws were proposed in Massachusetts and Missouri that would ban automobile radios, and a poll in 1934 found that 56% of people thought car radios were a dangerous distraction. However by, 1946, around nine million cars had a radio installed in them.
