Here's what DiNotte Lighting USA had to say about this and a related lumen question:
...it takes a really bright white light to be visible during the day time...lumen output is a reference when talking about the same color -and when talking about using it to see the amber lights put out less lumens than white (or red), but in traffic an amber light is an appropriate light for a front light, and the lesser lumen amber light is more visible than a similar lumen white light.
