Police in Abbotsford, BC are trying to kick that myth to the curb.
They took to twitter to release statistics about the cars in Abbotsford and the tickets they got in 2010.

It looks like the make of your car doesn’t catch the police’s attention, but what about colour?
That is hard to say. There is no written rule that a red or orange car should be pulled over. However, brighter or unique colours do stand out of the masses. We, as individuals, may notice a purple car with the same make and model as ours but not notice a silver one.
So, colour may not determine that you get more speeding tickets. It doesn’t determine how much you pay for insurance either.
One of the major determinants of insurance is the model of the car, whether its a 2-door or 4-door, and the level of luxury.
Do you believe that the make, model, or colour determine whether you will get more speeding tickets? What that a factor for you when you bought your car?
