A lesson in wavelengths
Basically the longer the wavelength, the further the light can travel. Green = short wavelength = short distance = crappy color for headlights.

Then how come lighthouses aren't red? I thought white was the best color for headlights, as it is all the colors. Red.... red woudln't light up a whole lot. Red is pretty dim on the value scale.

On a side note, if you notice after red (taillights) and amber (turn signals), then next longest wavelength is yellow. What color are most fog lights? White is not an ideal color for foglights because the fog is made of tiny water molecules, and when white light hits a water molecule or prism, it seperates scattering the light in a million directions.
