Do red cars get pulled over more often? 

There are few harder decisions to make when buying a vehicle than picking out its exterior color. This is especially true when there is more than one buyer in the mix. During this occasionally laborious process, one of the questions that often gets asked is, ‘Do red cars get pulled over more often?’ We have to admit, this is one of those automotive things that a lot of us at Carizma Motors believed was true. However, we have recently learned this is actually not the case. A recent insurance industry study has quickly and clearly dispelled this as a myth and our team is very excited to share what they learned. Let’s take a closer look.

Does color play a factor in getting pulled over? 

On the other end of the spectrum, family-friendly vehicles are the least likely to be pulled over by the police. Three-row SUVs and sedans of various makes and models are often the least ticketed vehicles each year.  

How do I avoid being pulled over? 

Drivers can avoid being pulled over and getting expensive traffic tickets by following one simple trick: Don’t break the law. It doesn’t matter what kind, or color a vehicle, may be if the person behind the wheels follows the rules of the road and drives the speed limit, they won’t be getting undue attention from law enforcement.
