yellow light camera

I was driving through the intersection and the light was yellow, I already passed the white line and the camera flashes but no ticket send out, I was in the intersection before the light turned red. How come?

"drivers who enter an intersection during a traffic light's amber phase will not be penalized, even if the light turns red as they are passing through"

If you saw the bright flash, you crossed it when it was red or ANOTHER card behind you did. Did you see another car cross with you?

How long has been since the picture was taken?

It takes a while for the ticket to come off the camera, it could be weeks or months

Also I believe all photos are reviewed by someone to ensure that it is a valid ticket, so not all flashes result in a ticket being sent.

Think of the Childre…
You'll get the bill in a few weeks if you're guilty. Just wait, no need to ponder now.

WOULD SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!

Got a dash cam vid to prove it was yellow? Be sure to post update with images if you get a ticket.
If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

You should be fine. I was driving home late at night and snow started falling, roads were terrible. Tried to break but the car wouldn't stop. Car finally came to a complete stop in the middle of an empty intersection, at which point I just proceeded to get out of there. The light flashed, but ticket never came. They review them, and know your speeds going in and out, and won't just ticket you because you cross the line. Some cars stop late and cross the line just coming to a late stop, results in a flash and a picture, but no second picture as you exit the intersection.
