What do traffic light cameras look like in the UK coz im really confused!!!?

the other day i was driving through a set of traffic lights, and although cameras werent attached to the lights, there were cameras near to it. I was clearing an intersection to turn right, but i cant remember if i was just behind or just in front of the line before i cleared the intersection, so im just wondering if these cameras are traffic light cameras, or just there to monitor traffic? there are three cameras at the intersection, one black one and two grey ones, and theyr all quite small, it was the black one thats was monitoring my part of the intersection, the 2 grey ones were pointing in other directions, someone plzzz just put my mind to rest coz im dead confused!thanx!What do traffic light cameras look like in the UK coz im really confused!!!?

others are to catch people who block traffic..



they also have ones for catching peoples number plates for those who don't pay tax or insurance etc..

if thers no sign then its probably just a trafic monitor
Sounds like CCTV cameras monitoring the traffic flow; the "traffic light cameras" are usually identical to the normal Gatsos, big yellow boxes.What do traffic light cameras look like in the UK coz im really confused!!!?
Right they are not always coloured in yellow like speed cameras - they are smaller... thinner i would say they sit very close to traffic lights at busy intersections. see the link
hey hun well thier is usualy a sign before you see the traffic camera and it will say traffic camera ahead ,so if thier is a camera on a crossing,you wont get a ticket unless you go through on red not orange as you could be passing as it changed
They come in all shapes and sizes



but they do the same job , earn money for the Govenment
Hi,



I think the cameras you saw are traffic monitoring cameras, there to detrere people from jumping red lights.



A traffic "safety" camera can be with in one mile of a warning sign, and within 3 miles of an accident hotspot and get you a fixed penalty notice of 拢60 and 3 points on your licence.



They are usually bright yellow, due to complaints that they were grey and hidden. This is due to the fact they are massive revenue rakers and peopl,e began to compain. They can be (hidden) behind tall trees, on a bend etc. They can sometimes be grey, if in an open space.



Also, you get police vans, with "mobile safety camera" on the side, although the safety of road users has not been improved since this enormous amount of cameras hit our streets. What can't be dispute is the amount of money they make...millions ans millions of pounds every year....the funds don't seem to go anywhere towards making the roads safer to be on....
