Does driving halfway through and realizing it's a red light count as running a red light?

Driving halfway through and realizing it's a red light does not count as running a red light. If you stop in the middle, it is not considered running the light. However, if you continue driving through and safely pass the opposite intersection, it is considered running a red light, which incurs a fine and a deduction of 6 points. To establish a red light violation, three pieces of photographic evidence are required: 1. The vehicle has not crossed the stop line, and the signal light is already red; 2. The rear of the vehicle crosses the stop line while the light is still red; 3. The vehicle passes the opposite stop line normally. If the entire vehicle has crossed the stop line and is in the middle of the intersection, it will result in a 2-point deduction. If the light is already red and the vehicle fails to stop, with the entire body crossing the stop line, this situation will be judged as over-the-line stopping. Although it is not considered running a red light, there will still be penalties.
