They also show how long the light was yellow and then red when you went thru the intersection as well as your speed. Those pictures are then sent to an approving officer or deputy to be deemed legit then the paperwork is sent to the offender. In the case above no one would get sent a notice in the first place.
Alot of people don't like the red light cameras. I personally know of at least two cases in the Valley where the red light cameras have proved who actually ran the red light and caused the collision. I would say over 80% of the pictures show people on thier cell phones, looking in the back seat at thier children or eating.
