White Flashing Lights at Traffic Lights

[*$kїđž!™]

Guys,

Just came from PoS.....
Was approaching the lights by Hyatt when it turned yellow and a few cars in front me on all lanes went thru.....all of a sudden I saw the place light up with white flashing lights......never saw this before...anyone knows what this is.....cameras?...

Googled it but wondering if we have that technology in trinidad .....

[*$kїđž!™]

Sorry bro I don't know about it....can u enlighten me

[*$kїđž!™]

Oh I see....thing is I never saw it before...so I didn't know about it.....
But if you see the Amber....I know that if you can't stop safely it is best to go through...because the other light will turn green after a few seconds when the current one turns red.....

Kinda unfair to issue a ticket for a car crossing on Amber. ...

So basically it's a camera system...Hmm....

[X2]

it takes pics for just about every stop if i remember.

They are not issuing tickets at this time... but who cares... people shouldn't be rushing the amber anyway... dangerous.

The Gov't put that there so drivers can take selfies, next time watch the camera and smile.

Same by El Socorro Skidz. If you pass that camera faster than 120kp/h, you will see a flash.

I've seen the flash go off before, but it flashed cars that were already through the intersection when the light turned red, there was no delay.

I mean, you're supposed to be driving at the posted city limit as well as take amber as a notice to get ready for the red light...

Though I got a flash some months ago crossing the boxed section just as the light went from green to amber, but can't remember seeing a flash anytime them desperate red light breakers came out of hyatt.

120km/h???
Wonder why they choose that when the speed limit is 80??

I have no idea. But I pass there heading east and west daily at night, and in previous months before the enforcement of the speed limit, I would have passed and got flashed while exceeding 120 kp/h. However, as of last night I passed around 110kp/h and and no flash.

Yup flashes over 120km, but not taking chances. I crossing it at < 80km

I complied for a week.
Now, I drive at what becomes natural to me which is 100-110. Too monotonous to drive at 80 and I have to force to drive below 80 which makes driving uncomfortable. Additionally I am spending way too much time looking down at the speedo.

When you get a ticket.. you can tell that to the police officer.

If that happens, that will be my problem to deal with. Won't make any excuses or attempt to not get a ticket. I have made a decision, will comfortably live with it and will face whatever that might possibly come my way. I don't have to tell the police officer anything.

[BrotherHood]

on another note them cameras are different, the by Hyatt with multiple flashing (more than 10+) is to record people who have illegally entered a box junction/yellow cross thing (ie when it is not clear) as more 'flashes/photos' are required to prove the person entered the area at a later point that they should have...think stop-go animation

2-3 flashes are for higher speeds where each flash/picture records the car at a given interval so the speed can be calculated..this is usually accompanied by some white lines on the roadway that run perpendicular to the direction of traffic so it can be proved in court( or anywhere else)...look up the rally driver Gastonides, his fault but for a good reason.

[Les Bain]

Maybe I never noticed before but has the yellow box area at Hyatt traffic lights been given a fresh coat of paint?

120kph and above is considered dangerous driving, and that area has a 'Dangerous Bend' sign so i guess that's why

if they give legal effect to those cameras it means u could possibly get charged with dangerous driving and fined $4000

and in this economy they have every incentive to do so- is like 100s of violations per day- nobody seeing ttps so they go assume it safe

[src1983]

I did that when it was now installed, so they have to go way way back to get that pic.


I do pass it at 90-100 at times though so I may have a little ticket in the mail somewhere
