I found some interesting information regarding this (below), but will tell you from personal experience as an auto claims adjuster (21 years) I do NOT see more red cars and trucks than others, in fact (because there are more silver, white etc), see less red than other colors....There has always been a debate not about accidents, but about being pulled over by the police in a red car, as opposed to another color vehicle. Here is what I found on that (take it for what it's worth) : there is an urban myth that the traffic police play Automobile Snooker(AS). In the original game of snooker, a player tries to pot balls on a billiard table. After potting a red ball (which is worth one point) the player then tries to pot a coloured ball. You get two points for a yellow, three for green, four for brown, five for blue, six for pink and seven for black. If you pot the cue ball (which is white) you have four points taken away. Transferred to the open road this means that if your local police are playing AS, you are 15 times more likely to get a speeding ticket (there are 15 reds on a snooker table) if you have a red car than any other coloured car but white. If you have a white car, you're pretty unlikely to get pulled over.
