My dad was saying they had a T.V. program on the other night. No doubt propaganda put out on behalf of the CPS. Considering recent complaints sent in over the matter.
There is no such term in the traffic light law as Waiver.
They are claiming that if you are too close to a traffic light signal on amber. It is still illegal to continue through. But that they waiver it.
This is simply an untrue statement from the CPS and police.
It clearly states in the very simple and clear legislation that an amber signal is to be regarded as a RED light to stop. UNLESS you are too close to safely stop. In which case IN LAW YOU THEN ARE TO REGARD/TREAT an amber signal ad if it were GREEN.
There is no waivering.
There is only truth and fact of either Taught, true and real stopping distances and safe stopping distances for different vehicles. Including thinking times.
And these require evidence. Evidence which the police and CPS do not want to include or gather with their machines and devices.
They only want to gather minimal (useless) evidence for purposes of prosecution. Not fair honest truth and records of events. To correctly and clearly show times, distances and the very IMPORTANT amber phase period.
Which is removed. And only simpleton evidence of a RED light is kept.
No co operation from the police or local council is given. Only obstruction and opposition.

but anyway.. there was no company name on it at all, but a guy was working on the red light camera. He seemed local. not foreign. It isa Gatso traffic light camera. He had the columb hatch open and was doing the electrics. I got to ask a few quick questions at the traffic lights, about the road markings & why they have only just started using them... he said only newer ones have them. I said that they are needed. He said its red light camera. And i said yeas but the Amber phase is the critical concern in law. He just kinda Shrugged. 
I had to set off then. I didnt get change to think of other questions or quiz him any deeper like where is he from, what company? the police or council? settings questions and challenge his road markings replies. I lost the video i was recording with the registration plate of vehicle, but it seemed like a bog standard Highways Maintenance flatbed with traffic cones on it and road signs. He was not dressed like a technician or specialist, nor was he from Gatso or Truvelo.. i asked him about traffipax cameras briefly... but i had to go. I think if i had stopped properly & got out i would have had change to get some very valuable questions and answers, responses and points across with feedback. 
And I didnt film it, because i was late & had to work over, but I at least have found it, it exists!
I will have to check the older google maps photos.
