The best defense for a red light ticket depends on the specific circumstances but often includes proving that the ticketed vehicle was not yours, the camera malfunctioned, or the light timing was improper. In some cases, showing that running the red light was necessary to avoid a collision or emergency may be a valid defense. Reviewing the photo evidence and checking for procedural errors in how the ticket was issued can also provide grounds for dismissal. It’s essential to request disclosure from the prosecution, examine the evidence, and, if necessary, consult a traffic lawyer for guidance.
