This Is The Reason Why Most Taxicabs Are Painted Yellow by autojosh: 1:50pm On Feb 26, 2018 |
Check the streets of Lagos, taxicabs are painted yellow. Check New York City as well, they are also painted yellow. This same colour is used on taxicabs in several cities around the world. The video below from Business Insider explains why yellow is the most preferred colour for taxicabs worldwide. The reason is yellow cabs have fewer accidents. The video says.. "Researchers have discovered a very good reason yellow cabs end up in fewer accidents. They used Singapore as a case study using some yellow and some blue cabs. Over 16,000 of these cabs were tracked for 3 months.. It was concluded that yellow cabs are easier to see, therefore, they have a lower chance of being hit". Could this mean that you are safer inside Lagos yellow cabs?

Is Yellow the most visible color.? |
Re: This Is The Reason Why Most Taxicabs Are Painted Yellow by palsenator(m): 3:01pm On Feb 26, 2018 |
Dig deeper, that's not the genuine reason. Yellow cabs are truly common and it is like a universally accepted color for cab but introducing colour to safety is unacceptable and misleading. 3 Likes 1 Share |

[right][/right] Even if cabs in Lagos are in coats of many colours, reckless driving of Lagos drivers won't prevent them from having accidents. |

Totally agree. Even at night in a very dark area. Yellow cars tend to be more reflective, hence easier to spot even miles away. |
