If (hypothetically) I ran a red light....
 

.....what are the likely outcomes?

My *ahem* friend was in the middle of Southampton and took a left turn at a traffic light controlled junction when there was no left turn allowed. As he did so he got flashed by the camera which checks for people jumping the red light.

What can my *ahem* friend expect to get in way of fine and points?

And before anyone says anything my *ahem* friend is already beating himself up for being such a ****......I mean what the hell was he doing in Southampton in the first place????

I seem to remember my brother in law getting done for the same offence ( thats jumping a red light, not being caught in Southampton ) and i think he got £60 and three points ( though not 100% sure on the three points )

Sorry i`m not much help

:oops:

No no, youve helped greatly to ruin his evening
8)

I did that myself...oh.....errr....I mean my friend did. :lol:

:laughat: Scoobs

What a **** - sounds like you were caught by the anti-skate cameras that have just been installed :wink:

Which set of lights was it ?

You might be lucky - I think light jumpers normally take two pics - one as you cross on the red, and another just after to prove that you did jump it.

60 quid fine and 3 penalty points.. licence endorsed with a TS10 offence (slightly more severe than an SP30)

Cheers Gnan.

Are you speaking from experience?

Bloody hell, i got something right - well you can tell your mate whats in store for him now.

You might not get done though i went through a set on red ( but only just on red :oops: ) but didnt get a NIP.

Good luck mate...........

no, i have no points but i thought i would get a traffic light offence once and investigated it with insurers to see what the hit may be, fortunately i heard nothing!
