Beating red right arrow...
-
Hi everyone, Just wanted to ask since it was only my second day driving after my license and still on P plate.
I turned right on a junction when it is a green light for straight bounded road and red arrow for right turn, since the cars on the opposite traffic has stopped and it was my first time encountering this red arrow light when driving.
So i wanted to ask if i will get into any trouble with the LTA/TP? There is no red light camera but there is a Junction Electronic Eye. I know it my fault that i did not remember my highway code but i really do not want to lose my license on the second day.

even if it's green light, but when there's this red arrow light at some few high-traffic junctions, you cannot even move your car forward to stand by mode for readying to turn right. you must stop the car as though it's still red light. -
it is at this junction, we can tell who's colour blind and who's not colour blind.
Just be careful next time and learn your lesson alright?
-
Yes, it a lesson learned for me. So now i have to wait to see if i will received the letter?

I also have moved right when the green light come on for straight through traffic, but red arrow for turning right. I moved by reflex action and wait in the middle of the junction until the other side straight traffic stopped, by then the green arrow came on and I continue the right turn.
No summons, but at that time conscious everyone there looking at me.

Yes... this instance... it is the turning LEFT scheme. There are many junctions with these SPECIAL privilege.
It acts like a slip road. But TS topic is for turning right (on Red).
The oncoming vehicles still have the right of way as their lights are GREEN.

Just keep your fingers crossed that you will not get a letter from Traffic Police within the next 14 days - 21 days.
Even if you would have (touch wood for u).... you are only at 0 point (no more, no less), you won't be suspended as yet... but make sure you don't get another bookable offence within the next 12 months. (if i'm you, i'll stop driving for this agony 12 months or risk yourself taking the theory & practical tests all over again).

Did the TP get your particulars, if not they get the vehicle owner furnish the particulars.
When you are asked for your particulars, then you will know.
I don't think our TP system very sophisticated like in the movies, zoom in on your face, your NRIC, name, father mother, school, DOB, occupation, previous conviction, finger print all come out.
Once they get your particulars, everything is automatic, a letter will be sent to you. No chance. You have to take the letter and go down to TP office and appeal personally.
