Australians are fiercely debating a driver fined $544 for entering an “intersection after the light turned red.” A roadside camera in Sydney’s central business district recently recorded the alleged mistake made by the unnamed driver.
According to reports, the vehicle ran a red light because they were turning right, according to the “photographic evidence.”
On Friday, the driver argued on social media that they were waiting for the cars in front of them to move forward so they could pass the green light without doing anything wrong. According to the city, the driver was attempting to turn right despite a clear red light, which ordered them to pay up.
Revenue NSW stated in response to a request to reconsider the fine that although it appreciates the driver. Unhappy with their response, the driver posted the images taken by the roadside camera on Facebook to see if others believed it was worth taking the matter to court — igniting a heated discussion.
Some Aussies argued the motorist clearly had their car’s right indicator on and should “pay the fine and suck it up”. But others didn’t see it that way and said it could be worth putting up a fight.
“I’d dispute it. I can’t see how they can fine you for an offence you didn’t commit, you can clearly see you had no intentions of turning right,” one person commented.
