My black Jeep has been hit twice by idiots who somehow didn't see it. I was seriously considering painting it traffic barrel orange with reflective stripes, then nicknaming it Traffic Barrel.

The only thing that changed my mind is that one of the local cab companies uses SUVs painted that color, and I'm afraid some drunk will get in my Jeep thinking it's a taxi.

I selected Lightning Red for my BRZ specifically for visibility. I think it actually does help, although it makes me a lightning rod for cop attention.
