I do think that BRG looks great when it's shiny and clean at a show. But it must be one of the most dangerous colors for visibility. I think it would just blend into the scenery -- which might be fin

The "scientifically determined" worst color for automotive visibility is white. The best are reds and those super-mega-yellows. The pale yellows like Primrose were not listed, but were probably close

That makes sense. White is also supposed to be the best color for avoiding the constabulary (i.e invisible to the naked eye 8^)). My bro in law has never had a car that wasn't white for just that rea

The AA over here published stats that black cars were less likely to be involved in accidents that yellow ones. but thats probably to do with boy racer T*ssers who get a scabby old 'scort or nova (wo

I read somewhere recently that the color that is hardest to see in bad conditions is silver/grey. Seems to me that the article also said this color car was involved in more U.S. accidents than any ot

Studies in the early `70s suggested that any shape painted in red was the most difficult to see at night. It has something to do with the transmission of certain wavelengths at low light levels. The

Interesting. That reminds me -- I took a course in optics a long time ago. If you look at a graph of the human eye, showing sensitivity vs. color, it peaks at bright green. In other words, the eye is
