Uber drivers and silence

Am I in the minority or are majority of uber drivers these days just going completely raw dog and not playing a single sound on the radio? I uber frequently (Toronto) and over the past few years I’ve noticed majority just sit in silence . I’m not a huge talker and I don’t feel like doing the typical hey how’s your day going when did you start shit that they’ve answered 100 times already . Throw the radio on , anything that doesn’t make it awkward if I suddenly move or have to clear my throat. End rant.
