The accident probability minimum car color

As everyone knows, the key driving safety performance of automobile itself, but you know what? The traffic safety and body color and have all kinds of connections with relationship. Some of the colors in the automobile encounters emergency of danger, to increase the side effects; instead, there are some color but to some extent weaken or containment accident.

Dark than light car to car accident

Australia's largest Motors Insurance Corporation -- NRMA company researchers on car accident occurred in the color and the relationship between the frequency of a lot of research, results showed that: the occurrence and the color of the car crash accidents such as the prominent degree are closely linked, and easy to mix dark probability and road environment, green, black, gold the blue color of the automobile traffic accident is much higher than that of bright yellow, beige, cream and white car. This is why?

First of all, color is in advance and retreat of the, so-called forward color and receding. For example, there are red, yellow, blue, black, a total of 4 cars to keep the same distance with you, you will feel the red car and yellow car to from their own past, is advancing colour; while blue and black cars look far, is receding. Advancing color visual effect than after fading, look closer, the owner will be a little earlier time aware of the danger of.

Secondly, the color with expansion and contraction, expansion and contraction color: color. For example, the same body painted in different colors, will produce different size of feeling. Such as yellow looks bigger, is the expansion of color; and the same volume of black, blue feeling smaller, shrink color. The contraction color looks better than it should be small, especially in the evening and on rainy days, often not for other vehicles and pedestrians and cause accidents, such as expansion of yellow color, looks great than it is, no matter how far are easy to arouse attention.

The brightness of the colors in the vision of people is different, red, yellow to bright light car, better visual effect. Dark models look smaller, far and fuzzy number. So what exactly what color car on the road the most secure?

Silver white car's safety

Hugh Furness of the Oakland University in New Zealand (Sue Furness), found in the survey of more than 1000 vehicles all kinds of cars, silver is the best choice, the accident probability minimum, and even if the accident, the driver was injured degree is also relatively light, was seriously injured in the traffic accident ratio less than 50% white cars. In contrast, white, yellow, gray, the probability of red, blue truck driver injured roughly the same, black, brown, green car the most prone to traffic accidents, the driver's chance of injury is 2 times that of white, yellow, gray, red, blue car.

Hugh Furness said, silver white car than the reason why other color car safety is still not known, they speculate that it is possible and silver white light reflectance high, easy to identify the relevant. She suggested to improve the road silver white car proportion, to reduce traffic accidents.

It is generally believed that the red color is enlarged, easily from the environment "jump" out, attention, are helpful for traffic safety. But the long time running, red is easy to cause visual fatigue, is not conducive to the observation of other light colored objects, from this point of view, is not conducive to safety. The car color experts believe, what color is more conducive to driving safety is more complex, in general the bright colors to safer than dark car.

Interior color will also influence the traffic safety

Automotive interior color choices for the driver's mood has a certain influence, will also affect the driving safety. Interior use of bright color, can give a person with spacious, comfortable feeling. The best use of cool summer, warm winter is the best, so can adjust the feeling of well-being. In addition, lightness and purity of color can also cause physical impression of color illusion, in general, colour weight mainly depends on the brightness of a color, dark to the heavy feeling, bright color gives a light feeling. Light bright colors make people feel soft, dark color is a strong feeling. The appropriate use of color, can relieve the fatigue, reduce the incidence of traffic accidents.
