Light Amber
9th May 2009
Can I successfully contest a traffic camera ticket – light amber as the car started crossing, then went red?
My girfriend was following my car in her car as I crossed a traffic light. Unfortunately the light turned amber as I crossed and and she continued crossing. The lights went red just after she started crossing and she has received a ticket for contravening a red light.
We have recived the camera photos – her car was about half the car length over the start of the crossing when the lights turned from amber to red.
Basically this was a mistake as she was following me so as not to loose her way, but we feel that as she started crossing when the lights were still amber that she should not recieve the ticket (points & a £60 fine). Does anyone know if it is worth contesting this? We don’t want to go to court, as feel that the 3 points and £60 fine would probably be cheaper though.
No not really if you refer to the highway code is states ” AMBER means ‘Stop’ at the stopline. You may go on only if the AMBER appears after you have crossed the stop line or are so close to it that to pull up might cause an accident” from what your saying your girlfriend was following you and so if she stopped than that wouldnt cause an accident if she was so close to you then be careful as she can aslo be accused of not leaving enough space to stop in the event of you having to pull up sharply. I do travel like this in convoy frequently when im showing people around the area i work in these days most of us have sat nav but at times we have to use the convoy system if we loose the other person following us like that we simply find somewhere safe and pull over until we see them and they join us then when its safe we pull out in to the traffic and carry on. i dont think you will get anyjoy with this one sorry
