The rules clearly state that beating a red light is 12 points. Its stated also on the spf website.
I don't think the red light cams can measure speed.
Yes, our red light cams still send out a series of flashes. And they always take from behind only (its easier to catch a moving object from behind....and the flash doesn't blind the driver's eyes). Its very bright - you'll almost definitely notice it, even in bright daylight. Just saw one case two days ago, when this car cut a red light coming down from Sheares Bridge, towards Bugis Junction.
The sensor for the cam, I believe, is a set of triple lines on the road, just at the white line where the first car is supposed to stop. So if you're already past the white line, in the middle of the junction when the lights turned amber, you're definitely safe. Quite simply, technically, it means you didn't cut the red light lah.
that is so reassuring to me, well its just me....super paranoid me...ahha...
thanks
