Is that the only distinction? How are the colourblind supposed to tell them
apart?


I am colour blind but do not have any issue with distinguishing
between pink and yellow. It may affect some people but red / green is
the most prevalent form of colour blindness. If they had been green
and brown then it might well be a nightmare (for me at least). To be
fair the leaflets do list where they are so people are being told
where to find the specific route validators as opposed to any other
sort.
