Actually today morning, I was very near to the signal at Bank road and it was green but when I reached on the signal it became yellow, i could not stop and the crossed the signal in yellow. when i was reaching to other hand, it became red. i did not see flash of camera may be it did not flash or i could not see coz of sun light. I am afraid about it. please help.

Guys today I was in the mid of the signal and the signal goes Red. While entering the junction I don't exactly remember the signal was Green or Yellow. But I was right in the mid of the junction when I saw the signal goes Red. Any suggestion would I be fined for this??

You have not violated any traffic rules as you did not bet the red light.

BE CARE FULL NEXT TIME MY FRIEND, JUST ALWAYS TAKE SLOW WHEN REACHING CROSSING. AVOID CROSSING INTERSECTION WHILE YELLOW IS BLINKING. CAMERA IS A MACHINE THAT CAN TRIGGER WRONG INFORMATION. DONT DO THAT NEXT TIME TO AVOID MEGA PENALTY.

absolutely no problem crossing yellow but yellow means stop if you can.it means about to turn red.i do not think you got caught by the camera but you should not make it a habit of crossing in yellow because red might catch you in the middle of the road.

Sure that u will not get fine. because once when u cross the line, it should not be red. after u crossed the line it changes to red will not charge you.

So dont worry. If u dont get fine please give me a gift. i am sure 100% u will not get fine.

I think you must have amazing eyesight to see that it turns red once you are past the signal.

If you entered the signal on yellow you will be fine. Yellow means stop if safe to do so, but if you are already at the line then it is not safe to stop and you should carry on.

as mentioned, nothing to worry....camera sensors trigger a second before orange signal turns to red at about a meter distance or two which proves that violators crossed on red light....

also, camera flash is noticeable either day or night... if you see it not, meaning you are safe.

IT guys from traffic department normally collects the data everyday and upload in their system on the following day so that on the 3rd day it will be available on the web.

I beleive its when u cross the signal AFTER it becomes red that those cameras get into action and all the flashing starts. So if what u said is right and it was yellow when u crossed, u shud be on the safe side!!

I know mistakes happen. But we shud all just stop when the green starts blinking. U will surely hear a lot of them honking at you. But it will reduse ure tension

All the best

It is quite risky, but sure camera didn't activate once as you cross the signal when it was green.

It acts only when the singal is Red or sometime yellow when somebody crosses the signal light post.

No problem with crossing yellow. No problem at all.

The camera will only flash when you cross thes signal once light turn to red.

Don´t worry my friend... the sensors are right after the traffic light.. means about one meter after. Sounds like the light became red long time after you crossed the sensors. Anyway you should check it after 2 or 3 days.

Good luck
