Evidently radar picks up red better than any other color.

So true.

So NOT true.  Radar doesn't see color.  Red has a wavelength of about 700 nm, whereas police radar has a wavelength between 1-3 cm.  In other words, the wavelength of the radar is 14-43 THOUSAND times larger.

Evidently radar picks up red better than any other color.

So true.  I've been pulled over 3 times in a year and a half.  But I'm so old they don't think it's actually worth ticketing me for speeding anymore.

I just thought it was because red cars and black cars could go really, really fast (wheely wheely fast?).  Faster than all the other colors.
