White cars are 10% less likely to get into accidents than non-white colors
During daylight hours, black cars are 12% more likely to get into crashes than white cars, gray cars are 11% more likely, silver cars are 10% more likely, and blue and red ones 7% more likely. At dawn and dusk, the disparity between white and other colored cars gets worse. Specifically, black cars under those light conditions are 47% more likely to crash than white cars under the same conditions.
You can read more about this in a 2007 study from Monash University.
