Traffic Red Signal Crossed

I crossed Red Signal about one week ago.
I did not get any fine so far.

I did not cross full signal, when I saw flash light on my car, I returned back from white line.

Please guide me if I will get fine in next couple of days, or this mistake was ignored by traffic police.

Thanks

Well, not paying attention sometimes costs lives, don't u think? This example is rather harmless, as he was driving pretty slow since he had enough time to pull back and correct his mistake.

He's not the guy who would kill someone, it's others who drive like total maniacs. What about those night street racers? Did they convict any of them?

As I could see, everybody drive very fast here and 80km/h speed limit in the city doesn't help at all. On the other side, 120 km/h limit at highways is also ridiculous, comparing to the city limit which is only slightly lower.

It seems the traffic laws are all pretty much messed up...

signal are what you think. Some are just bad luck or not paying attention. Precisely they regret it bitterly! 6K is a fortune to many!

Sometimes it takes up to a month to register, hopefully they get their man in the end.

Qatar has one of the highest death rates on the roads in the world, so what else do you call people who break the law and drive dangerous except for idiots? In fact the words should be much harsher, these people are murderers.

No a bad day is when this idiot kills someone because of dangerous driving. Really these people should spend a month in jail not a silly 6000 fine

The red light camera takes two images, one when you cross the white line just before entering the intersection and another one when you are in the middle of the intersection.

So one flash, no fine two flashes 6000 down the drain and points(seven?) deducted from your license.
