How does the color of a car affect auto insurance rates?

Automobile Color and Your Car Insurance Rates

The color of your car is more than just a personal preference in the car insurance game. The color of your car can actually have an impact on your car insurance rates.

* Red cars historically get pulled over for speeding violations at a higher rate.
* Dark cars with tinted windows are harder to see at night and therefore have a greater chance of being involved in an auto accident.
* Silver cars are a hazard in locations, like the Pacific Northwest, where rain and fog are a frequent weather condition.
