Recently, I heard that red cars are more likely to get stopped by Policemen than any other colour of cars.
knowing this, I am looking for my very first car.
So.. what colour was your first car? And is this red car thing true? :S

Not really, there may be a .5% statistical edge to red cars or something. But really, since it's not the most common color of car, I'd say heck no. Sports car's probably take the prize for "pulled over most often".
My first car was red, and I was only pulled over once in it. Of course it was an '88 Dodge Omni compact hatchback. Not too sporty.

I believe its true. Red symoblizes action and excitement, its a common tatctic used in marketing, hence why so many porn sites are filled with red color. Just so you know, its the teacher that said that.
Nah, I don't think so...
Well, I still have my first car (nearly two years with it), it is grey with silver and red little rays, and it is an '85 Pontiac Grand Prix. I just love it
I've always heard it to be true. Doesn't mean it is, but as corncracker said, red is a color that conveys action, catches the eye, and draws attention to whatever the object is, so I could definetly see how it could make a cop think a car is going faster than it is.
Boy am I an unfunny ass.
I doubt it. Do you know how many red Holdens are in Australia? If they pulled up every red car, they'd equally have to pull up every blue car, for you know, the people who drive fords. I don't know the colour of my first car. I mean, I'm getting a bomb and it's going to be a Datsun, so it's probably be that old brownish colour.
This is said to be because red is more noticable to the eye, not for reasons peop,e buy red cars.
I've been driving for six years and both of my cars were red. I've only been pulled over twice, once for a violation and another for my headlight being out. And I've done plenty of violations otherwise, and also drove with a burnt out headlight for six months before being pulled over.
Don't red cars also have to pay higher insurance? I think my momma told me that.
My first car was an orangy-brown color. I've never been pulled over, except while driving TheAbominatrix's car 'cause, like she said, the headlight was out. She was in the back being a drunken whore, for those who are curious.
I feel like that ties into Eyes on Forgetting Females, somehow.
I drive a white car. I've never been pulled over.
You would.
At least I left my insults back in the PMs. Childish, all you are is childish.
To stay on topic:
I always heard that police tend to pull over more sport-like cars were more likely to get pulled over than the town cars and family cars. Also, old beaters were as well.

My insurance is pretty low, I dunno if the color is factored into it all.
I'm pretty sure the reason sports cars get pulled over more is because they're usually being driven pretty fast. Well, that's what they're bought for anyway. My first car was a red sportscar, and again I only got pulled over once in... what? 3 or 4 years of crappy driving (I was a newb, after all).
Of course, you can only get pulled over for sucking, so it doesnt matter what color or make your car is unless you're a bad driver.
there are more red cars then any other
So theres more chance that a car is red only because there are more of them
easily solved

It probably depends on whether the person at the wheel is a skinhead. 'Wish I were joking, but that's how it is.
