Traffic light situation:
I may have accidentally crossed the red light just before the second signal near the Sainsbury’s car park. It happened just half a second after the light turned red, likely due to the icy conditions. I’m a bit worried about possibly getting a ticket.
Is speed enforcement typically strict in this area, or could I have a chance of getting off the hook this time?
Thanks!
It sounds like you’re concerned about potentially running a red light due to icy conditions. While traffic enforcement can vary by area, it’s generally best to prioritize safety over speed. If you feel like you might have crossed the light just after it turned red, it’s possible that you could be let off this time, especially if the conditions were particularly hazardous.
However, red light cameras or traffic enforcement officers usually take a strict approach to running red lights, regardless of the circumstances. It’s always wise to be cautious and adhere to traffic signals, no matter the weather. If you receive a ticket, you may have options to contest it, especially if you can demonstrate that icy conditions made it difficult to stop safely.
Stay safe out there!
