What is the probability of being caught running a red light when turning right?

Domestic laws clearly prohibit right turns when there is a red light for right turns or a red right arrow. There is no such thing as a chance of not being caught. As long as you make a right turn after the red right arrow at an intersection equipped with traffic violation cameras, it will be considered running a red light. It's important to understand the characteristics of the current electronic police system: the vehicle capture rate is 100%; the recognition time is approximately 1 second; the daytime vehicle recognition rate is over 95%, and the nighttime recognition rate is over 90%. Therefore, the probability of being caught running a red light when turning right is basically 90%, making it almost impossible to escape. The principle of capturing right-turn red light violations: the first photo is taken when the vehicle crosses the stop line induction loop on the ground; the second photo is taken when the rear wheels pass the stop line induction loop; the third photo is taken after passing the induction loop at the opposite intersection. These three photos can determine whether the vehicle has run a red light. Penalties for running a red light: since the new traffic law was enacted in 2016, traffic regulations have become very strict. The new regulations state that running a red light after January 1, 2016, which originally incurred a fine and a deduction of 3 points, now results in a fine and a deduction of 6 points. In many places, being caught by electronic cameras only results in a fine without any point deduction.
