In 1980, when I moved from a drab brown Datsun wagon to an "Inca Gold"
(yellow) Midget, I got three speeding tickets my first year, while
driving more slowly than I had with the Datsun. Also, I read somewhere
that fire departments find their yellow trucks are more readily seen
than their fire-engine-red ones.
