Question about Red Traffic Cameras in Los Angeles?

Hello. I have some questions about the red traffic cameras in Los Angeles. I recently was driving down La Cienga and I entered the intersection when it was green. However, as I was going through it turned yellow and then red right as I was at the end of the intersection. I saw the lights flash and I'm worried about this.



I've tried to do some research and the LAPDs website says you don't get a ticket if you pass the limit line prior to the red light turning. I understand what the limit line is, but which one are they referring to? are they talking about the one right before you enter the enter the intersection or the one at the other side below the light you are facing?



I"m just worried because I didn't purposely go through the light but it just turned as I was through it. Any help would be great.Question about Red Traffic Cameras in Los Angeles?
You entered the intersection when the light was green and while you were in the intersection it turned yellow and then red? There are only two ways that this could happen:

1) You were going so amazingly slow through the intersection that you are guilty of impeding or obstructing traffic and driving in an unsafe manner.

2) You entered the intersection while other vehicles were blocking the other side of the intersection causing you to get stuck in the middle of the intersection after the light had changed. Legally, you are not allowed to enter the intersection unless your path is clear and you are able to clear the intersection immediately.

Either way, you violated traffic laws. If they give you a ticket, you won't have much defense.Question about Red Traffic Cameras in Los Angeles?
There is only one limit line at an intersection, and sometimes it's painted, sometimes not. The LL is the first of two white lines painted before the pedestrian walkway (you will see two white lines, unless they have faded off). Also, there is a point of being too late to stop for a red light at an intersection (presuming the vehicle is traveling at the posted speed limit and there are no weather conditions to change the circumstances). This is called the "point of no return" - once this point is reached, the vehicle cannot be stopped safely, as it would end up in the middle of the intersection.

In Australia it's the line as you enter the intersection, I'm sure it works the same way in LA. If you are already in the intersection when it turns red you are OK.
Red Light Cameras are supposed to catch blatent red light runners, especially where there are high rates of auto accidents.



Okay, the camera if I am correct faces opposite, since your out in California I am not sure if you have to have two license plates 1 in the front and one in the back. I am going to assume you have one. The camera faces the back of a vehicle to catch the license plate.



You have a strip where you have to stop on red and lets say you have the green and as you are seconds away from hitting this stop line and all of the sudden the light goes yellow, then red. In this situation if you are over the stop line keep going, if you can safely stop then do so.

The limit line is the one before you enter the intersection, because I believe that when the light is red for whatever direction the cameras are monitoring the cameras a note is made. The best place to check with your local Traffic Department look under government services in the phone book or consult the California Drivers Handbook
