In your opinion, are red lights in darkened areas creepy / formidable?

Only when it’s in a small ass town and there are literally NO cars in sight. I feel like I’m going to get robbed. Lock those doors!

Edit: I’m talking about red stop lights

I love red light. My bedroom lamps are all red bulbs. So no, I don’t find it creepy at all.

It probably has not much to do with the color but the lack of other light which makes it scary or more importantly cautious of her.

All my house lights are remote controlled bulbs. They have several color and blink choices. When I don’t need it on white light to see for a particular task I have it on either red, or purple (blacklight). Neither one creeps me out.

You’d love the Red Light District in Amsterdam.

@rebbel Haha!!

They can be depending on where they’re at.
I had a Detroit cop tell me to run lights at late hours.
Then again, I had a guy try to get into my car at a red light during rush hour traffic.
red lights=bad lol

When the sub went to periscope depth, the control room had to have only red lights on. It was a security issue…red lights going back out the periscope couldn’t be seen but white ones could. They remind me of being safe.

Red, is typically a color/spectrum , that many animals cannot see*many mamals, can only see in blue/green.) It also dissipates faster, than other colors. That’s why Navy units, and hunters, use red light, to see with, but not be discovered. Any radio-technician, will know this doesn’t affect radiography, as well.
So. Humans, can see in this spectrum.
If you have ever worked in radiographic technology, you already know, that you can’t develope x-ray films (with our eyesight) unless you use red light.
This was largely outweighed, by “digital ex-rays.”
“Red shifting,“is a great way to understand what the human eye, is capable of seeing. This technology allows us to quantify multiple bends in light.
This allows us, to calculate the travel of light(which equals time/proximity,) to multifaceted things in our universe….

The observed light, capured by our specifically observed light/energy, gives humans, a distinct advantage of everything around us…

Differenttypes of light distinguishing, allows human beings the capability to understand LOTS of things.

On Earth, it gives us us the ability to see things that other things, cannot detect, with the added benefit of seeing.

In the universe, it gives us more ability to see how celestial bodies, are moving.

Prisms of light, give us an advantage over other species.
For example, it is hypothesized, that penguins, can see, in ultraviolet prisms. To a un-modified human eye, penguins can see these differences. Allowing them to see each other, through ultraviolet light. Therefore, they don’t see each other, as black and white. They see one another, in the super violent light, caused by oils causing individual, visual (to them) different color distinctive light picked up by the individual’s skin oil variations.

Even though, to our eyes, they just all look black and white.

Science, is scary, until you understand it…..

@MrGrimm Wow! Nice facts there.

We had to go to red lights when we took the YPs inland for hurricanes.

^Yup. Less visible, from far away.

Edit. In my 1st post my phone changed ultraviolet, to super violent, for whatever reason.
