How is the definition of that runs a red light? What should I do if I accidentally run a red light? There are also different opinions on the recognition of running a red light online, which makes everyone at a loss. Please watch a short video first, and we will give further analysis and explanation after watching it.

To understand the recognition of running a red light, we must understand the recognition standards and methods of running a red light. According to relevant traffic regulations, the definition of running a red light is: "The behavior of a motor vehicle that violates the regulations prohibiting traffic lights when the red light is on, crosses the stop line and continues to drive." According to this definition, in a more common language, it means that when the red light is on, the vehicle crosses the stop line and continues to drive, even if it runs a red light.

After understanding this definition, let’s take a look at how to use technical means to determine it. According to the General Technical Conditions of Running a Red Light Recording System, "The automatic red light recording system should record information in two to three locations during the red light of a motor vehicle to reflect the illegal process of running a red light by a motor vehicle."

I will use a common language to explain: when the red light is on, the photo before the vehicle crosses the stop line, it records that the signal light is already in the red light state before you reach the stop line, which is the first photo;

The second photo is that after your vehicle crosses the stop line, the signal light is still in the red light state, which is enough to indicate that your vehicle passes the stop line during the red light, which can be determined that you are suspected of running a red light;

In order to confirm your traffic violation of running a red light, take another photo to indicate your vehicle, and continue to move forward after crossing the stop line. In this photo, as long as it can reflect that the vehicle position is moved forward compared to the second photo.

Through the above analysis, we understand the definition and identification method of running a red light. Later, we will correspond to it according to the specific situation to see if these behaviors comply with the above definition and identification method. First, let’s take a look. After the front of the car in the video, we found that the signal light was in the red light stage, so we immediately braked and stopped. The whole vehicle has not crossed the stop line and does not meet the above definition standards for running a red light, and does not constitute a red light. So is this considered a violation? Generally speaking, this is not considered a violation, and electronic eye will not be photographed. However, if you happen to encounter JJ on the scene, you may also be punished. Some netizens once reported that it was the case that the car was fined for parking across the front line. He said that JJ explained: What is the purpose of this stop line? If you pass the line with a red light, if there happens to be pedestrians outside the line, wouldn’t there be an accident? Then there is a penalty for not being scored for failing to park according to regulations.

Next, let’s take a look at the car in the video. In order to avoid being punished by taking pictures, when you see that there is no vehicle behind, you will reverse and return to the stop line. Some people online believe that in this case, the third photo of running a red light will be taken, and the punishment will be imposed on running a red light. I said, this won't be true, because it does not match the third photo with the position of moving forward compared to the second photo, so it will not be judged as running a red light. However, reverse traffic at the intersection is also a violation. If you are photographed, the penalty standard is 3 points 200Y.

The third situation is, if the car finds a red light, although the brake measures are taken, the entire vehicle still crosses the stop line. Is it considered running a red light when stopping at this time? If you pass the line, stop immediately, and the electronic eye does not take the third photo of the vehicle moving forward. This situation is a parking lot across the line. The penalty standard for parking across the line is generally 2 points 100Y. However, there is another possibility, that is, if you encounter JJ on the scene, you will be given a live confirmation, and you may be judged as running a red light.

The fourth situation, if the car finds that it runs a red light, although it takes measures to slow down, it does not stop the vehicle immediately, but continues to drive forward for a distance before stopping. How can I determine this? The second photo will be taken immediately after the vehicle passes the line. In terms of identification method, as long as the vehicle passes the line and continues to move forward and enters the third phase position, the third photo will be taken. Is it considered running a red light? It depends on whether the vehicle moves forward to the third phase position. There is no standard distance for this phase, and there will be certain differences according to different intersections in different regions. As long as it can reflect that compared with the second photo, the vehicle has a significant position to move forward. Some people may say that the second photo will not be taken until the vehicle reaches the middle of the intersection, and the third photo will not be taken until the vehicle arrives opposite the intersection. Yes, this statement was correct in the past, but with the update of technology, this statement is now outdated.

So how can we prevent red lights? First, concentrate on driving with caution, and don’t get distracted when driving; second, slow down when approaching an intersection, don’t be too close to the car, and don’t grab signals; third, if you find that you have run a red light, stop in place as soon as possible, and don’t let the penalty standard be upgraded due to your blind movement. Finally, whether you are punished is not the most important thing, and whether you are calm and not incurred from accidents is the most important thing.
