No, Normally when you see the red Light you Should Stop the Car, But Its not like this, There is One White Line in the road. When the 1st two wheel Come One the Line The Camera will flash, But When You cross the with last Two tyre Then its will Flash again, & then you have violation. for the !st time they will inform you that its Prohibited. If you stop then its your Good Luck & if you cross then you have to pay violation.

HE WILL NOT PENALIZE THIS CASE. TRAFIC POLICE WILL ANALIZE THE CASE LIKE SPEED OF THE CAR, DRIVERS ACTION AFTER THIS.ETC.

PLS NOTE: - IF YOU JUMP THE LINE AFTER RED LIGHT STOP THE CAR AND DRIVE REVERSE AND STOP IT WILL REDUCE YOUR PENALITY TO 1000 FROM 6000. (Please do not answer if you are not sure)

No he will not be penalized because the he did not cross to the other side. It happen to me last November but up to now there is no penalty for me.

If you already pass (both wheels) before the signal turn red, but did not clear the intersection (still in those yellow grid), is it considered to be violation and liable to fine?

I agree that the flash was for another car...those sensors are designed to flash a car for a penality if they sense both front and back wheels crossing

hopefully not.. because now the penalty is between 10000 to 50000Q.R. or/and jail between 1 month to 3 years

but probably he will pay 500 or 1000 Q.R.

No Fine

If he only crossed and went through the junction to other end then he will be charged and will have to pay 6000.

if he stopped or he tried to reverse back he wont be charged.

Happened with me twice in last 8months and i never got any fine to pay or any points.

I think the camera might have flashed for someone else who had crossed the red signal completely which you did not notice. I am staying near the crazy and there are a lot of similar sudden breaks where most of the vehicles are sometimes crossing their front wheels and I have not seen any camera flashes for them.

I agree with the rule that he should have stopped his car when he saw the blinking yellow signal.

Since camera can't see its Number Plate, so how will system know what's the number of car to book for fine.

I think it's not possible to get penalised.

He will be penalized only the front as well as the back wheel cross the sensor. So don't worry.

I believe...NO

He wont be penalized at all...that's what I've come to know from people who have gone through the same situation themselves.

HE DIDNT VIOLATE THE LAW?????

He did not proceed but stopped may be his brakes were weak so he drifted a little forward to activate the camera..............
