I wouldn’t listen to a drum solo while driving in the car, no.
I’d have to say I like drum solos if they are really short and used as a transition. And by short I mean a couple/few seconds.
There’s a few drummers I quite happy to watch live just drumming and Ches Smith of Xiu Xiu is one of them. That guy is just awesome. This is a clip of him just playing a drum beat which was later incorporated into a XIu Xiu song. http://flickr.com/photos/grandwebmasterflash/2400682179/

Drum solos are an indulgence that should only be taken every once in a while, and should probably have some kind of melodic backup.
