Cameras at lights - please help!

[tammy3000]

I did something very silly at the lights on the way home tonight and now i'm abit worried! I was coming up to them and they were just turning to amber but i was committed to go. As i went through them they'd just turned to red so i ran a red light. I then reaslied there are actually cameras on the top of all the lights. My question is this - are the cameras there to simply monitor the traffic or do they record you - and therefore could i be convicted for running a red light from the footage from this? If so how many points would this be?? I know this may seem like a very silly question to some but i already have points and am worried about getting any more! thank you very much for your help.

For info If they where cameras then it's at least 3 points + �60.

Red light cameras are set back a bit from the lights. As mrknowall says, those on top are sensors to cxhange the lights when vehicles approach.
