Okay. So I might get a fine for one of the following:
-Beating red light
-Getting stock at the yellow box (obstruction to traffic)

If I did beat the red light then I should have gotten a call from the police to surrender my car for 1 month. :(

Here's a diagram of how it happened. I hope it's understandable. If you have any questions, please ask.

I went out to see the camera itself.
Is it designed to flash at the rear plate of the car?
Because when I was taking the left turn the one in front of me flashed so it caught my front plate. But the light was still changing from green to yellow at that moment.

Intersection Red signal cameras are always designed to flash and capture images of the rear plate. If the one in front of you flashed, it wasn't meant for you, It caught someone else crossing a red signal on the your opposite. It is impossible for it to flash at any instance before red anyways.

If it were you that was fined, the camera behind point "A" should have flashed.

Police don't call you for wanted impounds BTW, they just put a lock on the plate so you cannot pay the fine or renew registration.

Cheers.

So I can't pay the fine unless I surrender my car for impound?

Thanks, man.
But I'm more worried about my driving career than about the popularity of this thread. :(

You can pay the fine if they don't ask for your car at that time. This depends on the situtation and the officer on duty.

As I said, I know its not you and you should too as a fact since it flashed to your face while its supposed to from behind, so stop fretting about it mate.

Any update man! I too seriously think it was you. I've seen a lot of people half way through the intersection on yellow and no flash. Someone going straight behind you must have jumped the light.
