Traffic light camera
I crossed a traffic light in west bay today when the signal was flashing green...maybe just turning yellow but definately not red. by the time i got towards the middle of the turn i noticed the flash go off. has this happened to anyone? from my research it seems as if the flash should only go off if a car crosses once the signal is red. I definately did not cross when it was red but it may have been red while i was on the intersection. Do you think the flash was for my car. im hoping it was regarding some other car that just jumped the line slightly after it was red. Has anyone experienced this? ie crossing when yellow and seeing a flash.
Any update?
hahaha.
Maybe their aunties, or maybe their maids.
But it's their country, so let them play if they want.
There are those who wanted to play with a torch but were refused by their aunties for the fear breaking the glass ..............

But what about the locals who beep?
Were they stopped by their parents? And they didn't go to another country, the live here.
I'd love to know your opinion on why people flash their lights. Is it the same reason?
Besides all this , Who love to honk horn / beep are those who were stopped by their parents from making noise in their chilhood , so when they grow up & go to a foreign country , away from their papa / mama they feel the freedom and find satisfaction in doing so ....

@Galinda: really ? I think you bought a new horn for your vehicle after a long time :P just kidding don't mind..
I beep everyone when I drive. Why put a horn in a car if you don't use it? That's my motto.
@Galinda: but not all I believe..
It's a wife's duty to stress her husband to make him a bad driver.
The wives of Qatar do a good job with this, which is why the men are bad drivers and make so many accidents.
hmmm right :) OMG m scared if after few years some one will say the same thing about me :D
Yasir, Good you forgave him ...... he might be a married gentleman ..... they live under huge stress .... so make mistakes on the road 50 % of the times due to that ....

*sorry not wrong lane wrong way...
Drowsy drivers don't notice flashing. Only loud, long beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeps!!!
@MM: but you know one thing I had an experience yesterday with one stupid guy but he was not local when I took a right turn from the round about near teyseer petrol pump towards ezdan 3 one vehicle was in front of me I horned him a lot he was in the wrong lane then I go off road any ways nothing happened Alhamdulillah but I got angry & I was thinking why I didn't hit his vehicle if I hit his vehicle & called the Police he will be in a big trouble for sure...
Yasir, Flash lights can't but sounds of the horn would reach to us in the 'kabar' { grave } ....
Good thing is no body will be disturbed including Galinda ........ { after she or anybody sleeps forever }.

I like Yasir's idea of not letting them to come past but to race them! A little adrenalin rush on the way home from Carrefour!!
Yasir , We need to sit with them over a cup of black-tea to understand them .......
Galinda , That 's the only way to communicate a drowsy driver in the front ......
Actually this facilitates everybody to drive smoothly behind that kind fellow ......

@Galinda: this is also fun I used to compete with those guys who flashes behind me :D life will never be perfect in any where that's called life enjoy as much as u can before you sleep forever...
MM is right. They also honk a lot.
Lol Yasir.
They flash if you go slower than them... they flash if you go same speed as them... they flash if you go faster than them.
Basically they flash if you drive your car on the road.
@MM: some times they flash if you are driving faster than those guys :D
Galinda , Not only lights some sleepy drivers need to hear a honk before they start moving ...

If you are 100% sure the signal was yellow when you past the traffic light then you should not get a fine. If you did you can go to the traffic department and see the video.
The cameras start flashing within 2 - 3 seconds after the signal goes red.
Why would locals flash lights on cars at signals to freak them out? That seems mean.
I hope not but worried because flash came on
don't worry you will not get any fine...
Who else was with you in your car ?

no it was a turn, i was going at maybe 40
You might have exceeded the speed limit when crossing the signal.
