Radar Flashes on Yellow blink

Hello QL'ers

I was just passing through a yellow blinking light when the Radar flashed on me . But as per the rule shouldn't the radar flash when you cross on RED light? I checked my traffic violation and found none. Even if it appears is there a way that I can appeal because genuinely its not my mistake. I would be glad to pay if it was my mistake.

Do give me you guidance. Cry

it couldn't have been the yellow light.
maybe you drove too fast.the sensors can detect both red light beaters and speedsters if you don't know it yet.

wait 3 days then check your plate again.it takes them 3 days to process whatever violation you made

no idea at all, even i am also afraid of such one fine!! best way to get registered with METRASH, then you will be notified by SMS if any violation or anything related to you.

yes these days radar flashes and take snap with smiling face even in orange/yellow blinking light.. i have seen 3-4 flashes last week on airport signal and on signal on same lane on orange light.. i was just behind 2 cars that time and i was shocked also..

it will flash if u passed overspeeding
sensors works on speed and traffic lights

 

tyazbeck said by the way over speeding ...

by the way over speeding ticket starts from 350 QR so dont worry its not a 6000 QR

 

draj said Signal camera flashes on ...

Signal camera flashes on overspeed as well as on yellow blinking light also.. if u don't belive.. just give a try on yellow blinking...

 

maaverix said whoops ...

Too much variables to look after . With the traffic ahead of you there how are you going to look at the Traffic signal , the car in front of you and the car behind you at the same time . I think your car should should have an occupancy of 3 or more for the above purposes.

guys better stop when you see the green light blinking to yellow. really you dont want to give away 6000riyals to traffic police.

Everybody is right everybody is wrong it depends where you stand.

Snowstorm said it wont flash on yellow blinking... ...

unless you cross the line on the last yellow blink and end up in the intersection box when the lights go red.

so if you cant make it with the first two blinks of yellow, hit your brakes.......

safe driving guys.

cheers

I've been caught and charged at the Ramada signal for going through well it was blinking yellow. Also you'll need to wait a couple of weeks/months before the violation appears on your account.

King Edshel said I don't think so ...

as it should be there in 48 hours maximum there, if you will not find after that then it should be fine. Be careful, it might blinked because you went beyond the speed limit. Those are double purpose, for crossing the red light as well as the speed ...

Gypsy, how can someone benefit from the after two months penalty if they won't release your fine as soon as possible?

Nope not kidding it was 3000 QAR running a yellow light. As for the 2 month penalty I don't know, but I do know that speeding fine I got 4 months before didn't show up until just a couple of weeks ago.

maaverix said I checked the signal today ...

The Signal in question is the Gulf Cinema Signal going towards the Toyota Signal road coming from Muntaza.
The green light blinks for 3 times and yellow only once and then follows to red.
But there are some signal that has yellow blink twice or thrice also.
Can I appeal on the basis of that? There has to be a way out for a first timer 3000 is surely a big amount. I know my speed limit was less cause i had applied the breaks slightly during the pass. Now i think i should have oversped the chances were better. :(
