car colors and waht they cause

ok i know i've seen an article somewhere along the lines showing that certain car colors cause certain shit to happen

2 examples i know are red cars are more prone to get pulled over and black cars are more likely to get in crashes

does anyone know what all these colors mean, or have an article that will tell me? cuz i suck at googlin weird shit like that

I've not heard that, but it may be true since would stand out more (making a cop more prone to look at it) and black you could see less so they would get into crashes easier

Its common sense.

Red=Bright, Attracts attention. Including cops attention.

Black=Dark, Dosent attract attention. So more prone to cause an accident.

Lol it isnt something that is known all over the world where each color has a certain definition.

I know that with red/yellow cars insurance agencies tend to charge more because people who drive those cars tend to speed more. The same might be for black cars because black cars can be harder to see at night. Its all just statistics put out by insurance agencies.

thats what i'm thinkin of goin with, candy green with chrome flake in it, but i wanna know what exactly green does

although the silver on the regal i'm gettin is kinda sick i might jus go wit a super high gloss silver wit chrome flake.... i dunno yet, haha all i know for certain right now is i'm puttin a wood grain interior/steering wheel, 18-20" rims/spinners and maybe like a flowmaster exhaust to make it sound mean... eventually leather interior but my main upgrades are the candy paint, rims and some barry grant wood grain grippin

I heard that it can influence your insurance rates but after googling I found that is supposedly a myth.

Black cars denote an aggressive personality or someone who's an outsider or rebel.
Silver cars indicate someone who's cool, calm and slightly aloof.
Green cars can often be chosen by people with hysterical tendencies.
Yellow cars signify someone who is idealistic and novelty loving.
Blue cars are chosen by the more introspective, reflective and cautious driver.
Gray cars represent those who are calm, sober and dedicated to their work.
Red cars denote those who are full of zest, energy and drive and who think, move and talk quickly.
Pink cars are chosen by gentle, loving and affectionate drivers.
White cars represent status-seeking extrovert drivers.
Cream cars are the least likely to be involved in accidents and denote self-contained and controlled owners.
enjoy
