Hi guys,

Today, in the process of manouvering around a parking car, I drove (slowly) through a red light, didn't notice it had gone red until it was too late. It was at a pedestrian crossing.

The traffic lights looked like this:

They had that little camera type thing on top. Is this a red light camera? If not, what do they look like?

It was just off the parade in Leamington Spa.

Cheers! Just made me a bit worried.
 
That makes me feel better! Cheers.

Only occured to me after it happened that I had no idea what a red camera light looked like :confused:

Thanks!

Incidentally, what is the penalty for running a red light?
 
Woah woah woah! It's all kicked off in here.

The light was green, but a car was parking pretty much right against the crossing. It's a narrow street, and so cars from both ways were manouvering round him. The light changed as I was squeezing through, I had checked for pedestrains, but failed to notice the light had changed. I was doing 15mph, tops.

EDIT: That explanation is for Stoofa's benefit.
