Default RE: Blaze Orange In NY

My analogy to cars was not far-fetched at all. If mandatory blaze orange makes hunting accidents less likely to happen, shouldn't it be required for cars? It should make cars more visible and therefore there would be fewer collissions? Or don't you like the state choosing your car's color?
I dont' know. Are there any stats in color of vehicles in relation to accidents? There are stats of people killed in accidents that weren't wearing their seatbelts (hence the seatbelt law). There are substantial stats on deaths caused by DWI (hence the driving while intoxicated laws). There are stats on accidents caused by unsafe speeds (hence the speed limits) etc.............. I've never heard of any coorelation to car color and vehicle collisions or I'm sure that would be considered as well.

But as I said before........................... whatever floats your boat. Good luck this season and be safe.
