Red is used for danger signal lights because it is easily noticed and indicates urgency. The color red is a universal symbol for danger and is associated with stopping or alerting drivers to potential hazards, making it the ideal choice for warning signals.
A red light indicator typically signifies stop or danger. It is commonly used in traffic signals to signal drivers to come to a halt.
Red light is associated with danger because it is easily noticeable and can signal urgency. Yellow light, on the other hand, is often used as a cautionary signal, indicating to slow down or be aware of potential hazards. Selecting red for danger helps to emphasize the need for immediate attention or action.

Red is the least scatterable colour .Because if you take a spectrum of white light red has the highest frequency among the other 6 colours (ie Violet,Indigo,Blue,Green,Yellow,Orange).This is the reason why red colour is used for danger lights as it travels more distance than other colours without being scattered
White or yellow lights in front of a car are used to illuminate the road ahead for better visibility, while red lights at the back are used to signal other drivers that the vehicle is braking or stopping. This color differentiation helps drivers identify the direction in which a vehicle is traveling, reducing the risk of accidents.
white is the colour which we can see from the maximum distance and red is a alert signal or danger signal and has good reflections also.

We humans find the colour red a warning because our instinct tells us to. The reason for this is because it's the colour of blood. This still remained from the time we were hunters.
