Did I get caught by a red light camera?

Question

I was driving tonight and I went through a light while it was yellow. I swear I saw a white light turn on as I went through.Is there any way to tell if you got caught before the ticket comes? Does a white light turn on if they catch you?

Once I had the same experience and fears as you have right now (the light was yellow officer ;-). Saw the white flash also. Here’s a website to help you find out if there actually was a red light camera at that particular intersection:http://www.photoenforced.com/ By the way, I did discover from this website that there was a traffic cam at my particular intersection, but never received a ticket. So even if you do find out that there was a cam, it’s still not a guaranteed ticket (apparently the picture has to also clearly show your face as the driver, maybe some get thrown out if not?). Finally, if you do get a disheartening letter, see the following:http://www.highwayrobbery.net/http://www.ehow.com/how_4558303_fight-red-light-ca…

If you were the only one that passed the light by that time the camera did catch you

Ms. Lexie Dickinson · Answer

The white light is the camera’s flash. It may have been the car behind you or next to you, if you noticed one.

Ms. Lexie Dickinson · Answer

The light has to red when you go through it.

Of course there is no way to know before the ticket comes in the mail.
