    Black cars 'most likely to crash'

    Black cars are more likely to crash than cars of any other colour, a survey suggests.

    The Sun says a survey of 130,000 accident claims by insurers Churchill found black the most risky colour, with silver coming second.

    Cream-coloured cars were the safest.

    But the paper claims the problem is less to do with the colour than the personality of the driver choosing it.

    Psychologist Donna Dawson said: "We think about colour all the time, from what we wear to how we feel.

    "This emotional influence transfers to how we drive."

    She claims people choosing black are aggressive and outsiders, with those choosing silver being cool and aloof.

    Drivers choosing cream, on the other hand, are self-contained and in control.

    I would love to have a black and silver Excalibur. Does that make me an aggressive, aloof outsider? I guess that study didn't take into consideration climate factors. A lot of people here in Florida choose white simply because of the heat.

    I think the Brits are wrong.

    I drive a big black truck with a big V8.

    I ride a bid black bike with a big V-twin.

    I spit on Sabs and Volvos.

    On the back window of my truck are two stickers. One is Calvin pissing on a french flag and the other is Uncle Sam pointing and telling you to work harder the government needs you to help all those millions on welfare.

    Hey PissAnt what do youdrive?
