If you don't listen, you won't hear what ATC is saying.

Many Pilots disregard ATC briefings and end up not having the opportunity to fly any more.

Lets get it right here. It is a common sense issue to always take things into consideration to avoid unusual flight envelope. 4 youths passed away 2 days ago because the pilot apparently became disoriented in low ceiling and bad visibility circumstances, losing control of the aircraft and impacting terrain.

I always consider my exchange with ATC very seriously and never disregard information giving to me. I consider that "good practice" for safe flying.
