Not the one on the way out of Braintree town center near the fountain. went green, amber, red on me in about 2 seconds. not good @ 30mph with a 2.5 ton truck and 1 ton ballast in back!! thank god ive got 9" tyres on and disk brakes all round!!

Ok so whats the rule with ambers, you know, say its a 40mph dual road, as you approach the green light it turns amber, but theres sod all you can do to stop before you reach the lights, and if you were to stop youd end up skiding in the yellow grid area making a right scene. some times theres no choise but to stay commited. in this case yould you still get a fine, as the light could possible be red just when you pass it and its out of vision?
