What makes a traffic light camera flash? today i was approaching a traffic light and on approach the light started to flash green so i began to slow down, when i checked my rear view mirror A LAND CRUISER was approaching at high speed behind me and i knew he was going to hit me so i was forced over the line.. half of my car was over the line! the light was now yellow! The cruiser overtook and sped away and i remained at the light!

Will i be receiving the dreded 6000 Riyal fine?? it was a case of either a huge 4x4 hitting me or passing the line!

Advice please!!!

If the radar did FLASH, you WILL "Speaking out of personal experience, dont care what the sties say" get fined. Again if it flashed you WILL get fined.

However, when you go to traffic police, you can explain what happened they will send you to another office, in bin imran if I am not mistaken, they will watch the video and if what you state is true you will be fined 300 QR for stopping in part of the intersection, I was happy to get the 300QR fine, much better than 6000QR.

Don't worry you will not be fined. The radar gets activated only when you cross the line ( front and back tyres)when the signal is already red.

Relax you are not loosing any money :)
