Default Tail lights

The question I have been asking for years is about blue tail lamps on British tanks and Carriers. I came across this when installing the electrical system on a restored Vickers Light tank Mk6a. There is a blue and a red lamp at the rear, with individual switching on instrument panel, I believe early Carriers were also like this. Nothing in the manuals to indicate why. I wondered if it was switched to blue if reversing back when in action to warn infantry behind.
