Many people get a red light camera fine because they are close to the intersection and rather than put everyone's head into the windscreen they opt to keep going and the light turns milliseconds before they cross the line...no questions asked no argument entered into...

You are supposed to slow down when you approach a traffic light, instead of continuing to drive at 60kph.
