CRAP !!
several studies have shown that lime-yellow is more effective than red in
attracting human attention and that, statistically, white and lime-yellow is
the safest color combination for fire and emergency vehicles, far safer than
the traditional red-and-white. however, fire-fighting custom still
influences fire engine color choice more than safety, thus most fire engines
are still the traditional red or red and white.
