My ticket last week was at the split second from yellow to red! No way to stop unless I didn't care who was behind me! I always see the intersection traffic before entering 2 cars were in the intersection when I decided to continue instead of a quick stop. I plan to fight mine.
Good luck Viper.
Traffic tickets account for over 30 billion $$$'s in business for gov. and insurance co.
I couldn't have said it better myself.
I still say fight it. Only tickets I have ever paid without a fight are parking tickets.
Don't doubt yourself and be confident. You will do fine. My experience has taught me that just the fact that you are fighting it show you "BELIEVE" you are not at fault.
WE are all people and make mistakes. Most judges understand that.
I don't know if a red light camera ticket carries points. If I does I am sure you can get the points dropped, all they really want is your $$$.
