The reason lies not in who is behind the wheel, but in the visibility of their vehicle, say the researchers.
Black, grey, silver, red and blue fail to stand out against the background of the road, scenery and other traffic."

One study in Europe spanned 20 years and detailed over 800,000 car accidents and what colors had the highest crash rates.
This comprehensive study found black cars were repeatedly involved in more collisions than other colors. On the contrary,
white vehicles seem to be the safest cars, as they stand out the most, especially at night. Other notably safe colored autos are yellow and gold. Many firefighting trucks are in fact painted yellow, so they are more visible to motorists and thus reduce collisions."

red is a poorly detected color. They analyzed accident data from the Dallas Fire Department and found that crash-related incidents involving apparatus were three times greater for red or red and white fire trucks compared to lime-yellow and white trucks."
