Colours on Wheel

Some interesting facts i gathered from net
about cars and our personality



Ancient Egyptians believed in chromatherapy, the ability to heal with colors: Red stimulates mental energy, yellow stimulates the nerves, blue heals organic disorders such as colds and hay fever, etc.Colours reflect the characteristics of a person to a great deal.but do you know that the colour of your vehcile, is also a pointer to your personality.Believe it or not! A U.K insurance survey had studied 1,30,000 cars and found that there exists a strong correlation between the personality and a person's choice of his vehicle colour.

Psychology studies suggest people choose their cars’ colors based on specific personality traits and how the driver wants to be seen by the world.

Black cars put off an intimidating vibe, like a pair of mirrored sunglasses on a state trooper. Red cars say, “I’m fast, give me a ticket!” People who drive green cars tend to like the outdoors and are concerned about the environment. Chocolate addiction probably explains why brown keeps showing up as a popular color. White cars... well, science has never discovered why anyone buys a white car on purpose – “too tired to pick a color” is the most likely theory so far.

Nothing looks more like a smile on wheels, though, than a bright yellow car. Yellow is the color of sunshine, spring and new life (think egg yolk), yet until recent years it was considered just a little too flashy to be associated with good, decent folks. The color has a “look at me” quality that appeals to outgoing personalities and turns off people who like to keep to themselves – it’s the automotive equivalent of a Hawaiian print shirt.

When choosing a car color, however, be sure to consider more than its ability to match your wardrobe. Certain colors require particular care. Keep this list handy when you choose:

  • White: Although grime looks terrible on a white car, it’s the easiest color to care for.
  • Black (and other dark colors): These are most susceptible to sun damage because of their heavy absorption of ultraviolet rays.
  • Red: This also shows sun damage, so keep your car in a garage or shady port whenever possible.
  • Pearl colors: These are the most difficult to work with. If the paint needs to be re-touched, it must be matched to look right from both the front- and side-angle views.

Silver cars are the safest on the road

Going for a spin in a silver vehicle is much safer than any other colour of car - black, brown and green cars are the most dangerous

Silver cars are much less likely to be involved in a serious crash than cars of other colours, suggests a new study of over 1000 cars.

People driving in silver cars were 50 per cent less likely to suffer serious injury in a crash compared with drivers of white cars, the research in New Zealand found.

White, yellow, grey, red and blue cars carried about the same risk of injury. But those taking to the roads in black, brown or green cars were twice as likely to suffer a crash with serious injury.


In Great Britain there was actually some research done that suggested that the colour of your car says something about your personality type. And accordingly, based on your personality type, your likeliness to be involved in an accident (in the United Kingdom at least). That research showed that black cars are twice as likely to be involved in crashes as cream-color cars. Whether this is true in the United States is unclear.

Here is what it said about certain car colors (listed in order of most dangerous to least)*

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.
