A silver car about to turn at an intersection at a distance to yourself... yeah, may end up beating out any other color as far as visibility goes. Ask James Dean what color the light pole was.

As far as YOU being a safer driver while in a silver car, no, I don't think that has anything to do with it.
How the fuck does yellow car blend into the road?
