Drivers’ reactions to clothing/colors.

I have two high-vis tees I wear, one lime green and one orange. After months of wearing them it is obvious drivers treat me differently depending on the color - everything else is exactly the same. I live in southern Florida, which has the most aggressive drivers I’ve ever seen. When I wear the green I am constantly getting passed at high speed, deliberately challenged, cut-off, they refuse to yield, etc. When I wear the orange, I almost never have a problem. Obviously, orange is a safety color, but it’s like the green actually annoys them. I’ve decided to stop wearing the green.

Has anyone noticed the same thing? What are your experiences? Not just colors. It could be anything: patterns, logos, baggy shorts vs. lycra, street cloths vs. athletic, etc.
