Is it true that red colored cars get in more accidents than any other color?

It's a myth. Silver cars are in more accidents (until they are no longer the most common color car on the road). One study showed that passengers in brown cars sustain the worst injuries. That was in New Zealand from 1998. I can't imagine why that would be true though.

Yep. People who like the colour red tend to be risk takers.

"Not without a driver."

No.
"According to a study by researchers at the University of Auckland in New Zealand silver cars are 50 percent less likely to be involved in a crash resulting in a serious injury as compared to white cars.

The least safe colors are brown, black, and green according to Reuters.

While, yellow, gray, red and blue cars ranked in the middle range.

According to optometrists, red is the most difficult to see color.

Red is the most controversial of colors. Many drivers claim that by driving a red car they get stopped less for speeding and have less accidents. On the other hand, red car drivers complain that because they drive red cars they are stopped more often for speeding and are moving targets for accidents."

Red car drivers also don't get more speed tickets in average:

Hi,i don't know about now,but a red sports car used to cost more insurance than the same car in a different color due to the fact that it was thought the red car was more prone to have an accident..regards tessa5

It's possible that the colour red attracts the kind of people who are more likely to drive aggressively and dangerously, but I've seen no statistics to support that.

this is a fact - when someone has to make a split second decision - they see the red car and it attracts them as it can be seen rather than what they did not perceive.

There is no hard evidence to prove this theory and no data to support it.

Did your insurance company ask you what color your car is when you took out the cover? No! they don't keep such data. Secondly There are more Silver cars manufactured than any other and therefore it follows that they would have more accidents by the law of large numbers.
