if you passed through it on amber mate it shouldn't have flashed as you get three secs to get across the two loops at the stop line.  but if u jumped it on red then u will get 60 pound fine + 3 points.

Amber is proceed with caution so thats fine to proceed. Are you talking about the camera above the traffic lights? They are just sensors as far as i was aware...never in my life have i seen one flash. Think u can elabourate?

no he meansd a traffic light cameras look just like speed cameras! I expect it will have a picture of your car and the light if the picture is amber thatll be that if its red youll get a £60 fine and a deserved 3 points!

Amber is NOT proceed with caution.  You're thinking of the green light.   
Amber is stop if it is safe to do so.  Red is stop. 
 
Which junction was it around Cleck?  I had the ones at the Swan traffic lights flash when I was passing through on amber (there was a car right behind me).  Flashed twice but either it wasnt working properly or both flashes were for the guy/girl that followed me through.

damn no wonder i get funny looks when people try and cross and i  almost run them down. I dont think shouting at them "its a fucking road you idiot not a path" helps matter either. 
 
Thanks for the insight.

I live in west London and well you cant drive 10 foot with out seeing a camera of some sort, as for the traffic light ones if you go past a Amber and if flashes its normally one one flash, and see how far across the line you are to see if you purposely jumped it... 
 
pulse 70% of all cameras don't have film in them... 
 
the ones you gotta look our for are the ones in London's motorways like M25 or M4 where they have cameras that take the time and position of your car and the next junction take it again to see your average speed if over 70 then   your fucked
