Temporary traffic lights
6 Answers
On a main road there were a lot of road works going on and a big set of traffic lights were out, I saw the temporary lights too late and went through on red. They were badly placed and I wasn't the only one, but are temporary lights ever hooked up to the cameras to catch when people jump red lights or do I not need to worry?

They were set up at a roadworks resurfacing a mini roundabout, long queues in all directions and no possibility of travelling over 5mph. There was never any chance of a collision (I had my 2 yr old grandson in the back and never take any risks - 1st endorsement in 40 years of driving).
A warning would have been sufficient!
The traffic cop didn't follow me through the lights so I can only presume he was lying in wait.
I wonder if he caught any of the people in the queue on their mobiles?
