That's interesting question. Mostly lights have white, red and green colours. Seldom there are yellow lights (i've seen them mostly in the some danger enclosing lights i.e. flashing yellow). Not sure if this is the case. Most unisual color i've meet - in Australia blue light are used from time to time.
