Can Electronic Eyes Not Capture Running a Red Light When Turning Left?

Running a red light is an illegal act, and it will definitely be captured if committed. When a motor vehicle turns left, it is not that running a red light is not captured, but rather that the conditions for running a red light are not met. The perspective of the driver of the vehicle differs from that of others observing the vehicle. The path of the vehicle in front as seen by the vehicle behind may also differ; the vehicle behind may think the vehicle in front is running a red light, while in reality, the vehicle in front is passing through normally. Under special circumstances, when making a U-turn while turning left, there is no need to observe the traffic light, and it will not be captured as a violation. When encountering a double yellow line (one solid and one dashed) at the center of the road without any signs prohibiting left turns or U-turns, vehicles on the dashed line side can make a left turn or U-turn without regard to the traffic light, provided it is safe and does not obstruct traffic. Running a red light is a serious and egregious traffic violation. If captured, it results in an immediate deduction of 6 points and a fine. Additionally, if a traffic accident is caused by running a red light, the party who ran the red light will bear full responsibility for the accident. If a traffic violation is captured, the penalty can be appealed by bringing relevant documents (such as a driver's license, vehicle registration, etc.) to the local traffic police department to review the footage and apply for administrative reconsideration to revoke the penalty. Specific legal provisions: According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," motor vehicle drivers committing any of the following violations will have 6 points deducted: driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic signal lights. According to Article 90 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law," motor vehicle drivers who violate road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road traffic rules will be given a warning or fined between 20 and 200 yuan. If there are other provisions in this law, penalties will be imposed in accordance with those provisions.
