    She was either past it or wasn't, which is it?

    Sometimes you can cross the line at green, then there is another light which allows pedestrians to cross; maybe that is what the OP means?

    Do you actually drive? Your posts all show a shocking ignorance of everything road related. There are red light cameras all over the country! Along with yellow box junctions.
    Yes, but I've never seen one. I didn't know there were cameras for anything other than speeding.


    If I've never seen a traffic light camera and it wasn't mentioned in my driving lessons then why would I be aware of their existence?

    Welcome to the 21st Century.

    You need to be aware that there are also cameras monitoring bus lanes, box junctions, prohibited turns, etc.

    Not to mention identifying vehicles without the necessary tax, insurance and MOT.

    There are often signs showing when traffic lights have cameras, they will say 'Traffic Signal Cameras'. It genuinely worries me when people see a sign they don't understand and make no effort to find out what it is

    Also, depending on what form of navigation aid you use many will warn you of red light cameras

    SO you're not just ignorant of box junctions then... How long have you had your licence, or are you not old enough yet?

    You see them by opening your eyes...

    Because I would have seen them if there were any near me?
