[QUOTE="bettingpython, post: 1337801, member: 4307"] The moth effect you are referring to is called target fixation, you will drive or steer a vehicle in the direction that you are looking. Sport bikes are extremely sensitive to steering input even minute amounts you subconsciously put in because you are looking some place, thus people who look at what they are trying to avoid usually wind up running into it. Ambers are less attention grabbing than reds and blues so people tend not to target fixate on them. I never get to see any sights or scenery nearby to the sides when I am driving us somewhere because I don't sight see when driving, it's a bad habit I broke years ago. It's actually the blue that grabs your attention we are used to seeing amber in turn signal traffic lights etc the same with red's in brake and tail and traffic signals. If non emergency departments wanted to get more attention than just amber they should run ambers and greens. Green is not normally used on vehicles and normally we only see it on traffic signals, flashing greens and yellows are almost as good as reds and blues for getting your attention. [/QUOTE]
