[MENTION=26439]hinch[/MENTION] yes when red is not moving.
Damn... how'd I do that?! I can't even blame autocorrect. Odd.

Red paint is lighter than blue*. So it must be faster.

But red is the fastest colour ;) scientifically proven.

Then why is it the universally-recognised colour for stop/slow?
"Why red Colour is used in traffic signals?
The primary reason why the color red is used for danger signals is that red light is scattered the least by air molecules.The reason behind the scattering can be explained by Rayleigh scattering. The effect of scattering is inversely related to the fourth power of the wavelength of a color."

So not only is it the fastest colour, it's also the most well distinguished. Have that lol!

Based upon your scientific explanation above I decided to do some googling.

It would appear DDR is, in fact, scientifically-proven to be the fastest colour, but of course, I wasn't about to post that little nugget up.

However, upon discovering the following, I think I would rather have the slowest colour than the most bent! :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:


"A prism works because the different colors of light travel at different speeds inside the glass. Because the colors of light travel at different speeds, they get bent by different amounts and come out all spread out instead of mixed up. Violet travels the slowest so it is on the bottom (least bent) and red travels the fastest so is on the top (most bent)."


I don't think I could've made that up if I'd tried! :D

How has it taken you this long to actually google that, been pinging that exact quote around on FB for donkeys months :lol::lol::lol::lol:.


Like the true race bred colour we are, we take the bends the fastest, and on the proper racing lines, unlike the others who do not know their place on the track :ninja:
