You could have stopped at dumbest. I believe I'm making a civil and reasonable comment.
Also, a black and white contrast is objectively more un-equivocal than a flurry of colors. For example, my mother, in her 80's is a surprisingly safe driver for her age, but her visual acuity is just not the same as before, and at night she may have trouble with a rainbow.
If you bothered to look at the way these are painted you would know this isn't a problem.
As someone who deals with ergonomics as part of his job I KNOW there is a problem.
