Will running a red light go unnoticed by cameras?

[McHolden]

If there are cameras, they will capture the violation, but areas without cameras will not record it. Whether a vehicle runs a red light while turning left or going straight, it is considered illegal. According to Article 89 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, vehicles that do not follow traffic signals, including traffic lights, signs, markings, or the instructions of traffic police, will be fined 200 yuan and receive 6 penalty points. If both the left-turn and straight signals are green, driving straight from a left-turn lane is a violation of lane regulations. When the left-turn signal is red, running the red light will be penalized. The definition of running a red light while turning left: Running a red light is determined by the vehicle's position relative to the stop line. If the vehicle crosses the line when the light is red, it is illegal. The camera primarily records the vehicle's movement during the red light, focusing on significant positional changes. If the front wheels of the vehicle just cross the stop line and immediately stop when the light turns red, traffic police will not impose a penalty. However, if the vehicle continues to move completely after crossing the line, it is considered illegal and will be penalized. This means that if the vehicle crosses (presses) the line during a red light and continues to move, fully crossing the line and entering the intersection during the red light, it will be penalized. Here are some ways to avoid running a red light: First, observe the arrow signal, then the circular signal: Currently, there are two types of traffic signals: arrow signals and circular signals. When arrow signals are present, drivers should first look at the arrow signal and then the circular signal to avoid running a red light. Note: When encountering a circular red light, right turns are allowed. However, if the right-turn arrow signal is red, right turns are prohibited, and violations will be penalized as running a red light. Brake in time: When the light turns red, ensure the front of the vehicle does not cross the stop line. If the front wheels accidentally cross the line and the rear wheels follow, the electronic camera will capture the violation, and it will be penalized as running a red light. If the front wheels have just crossed the stop line when the light turns red, the vehicle must not proceed further and should wait for the green light. Check the green light countdown before proceeding: When the green light flashes, if there is a countdown, drivers can judge accordingly. If there is no countdown, and the vehicle is close to the intersection with high speed, it may proceed to avoid running a red light due to delayed braking. If the speed is low and the vehicle is far from the intersection, it should brake immediately to avoid running a red light. Article 38 of the Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China states: When the green light is on, vehicles are allowed to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians. When the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from proceeding. At intersections without non-motorized vehicle or pedestrian signals, non-motorized vehicles and pedestrians should follow the motor vehicle signals. When the red light is on, right-turning vehicles may proceed if they do not obstruct the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians.
