Problem of number of useful colors was considered by National Joint Committee on Uniform Traffic Control Devices; conclusion is that optimum color code for highway use consists of 12 colors; red, yellow, green, blue, black and white are assigned meanings entirely consistent with traditional use; two new colors -- purple and brown -- are added for specific application and another color -- orange is assigned to new and broader use; three other colors are identified and reserved for future uses.
