Colour alone isn't the best way to do things. Perhaps you could also
indicate the information some other way perhaps by adding an index number
or other additional icon to basic caret?

At the bare minimum I think the most important thing is for the user to be
certain which caret is their own, but being able to differentiate the
others on top of that would certainly be a big bonus too.
