was the only vehicle on the road, lights were red about 150m ahead of him and he drove into the box. cant be arsed making another video of it, and not the worst thing he did in the clip.
thanks for feedback, sounds like i deserve the fine, annoying as it is. (go that way every day so knew the lights were 2s from changing which is why i didnt come to a complete stop).

Sure, I guessed as much, I don't need to see it. It was more the point that a vehicle in the ASL box is not automatically guilty of ASL-encroachment (RLJ-ing would be the actual offence).

There's evidence there for both of you to have been fined. The taxi's RLJ at the end is blatant.
However you try and justify your RLJ in your head (slowed, careful, etc) you still RLJed, and sent in self-incriminating proof of your RLJ to the Police.
The video above doesn't prove ASL encroachment by the taxi (just being in the ASL it is not an offence), it all depends on the approach so I'd need to see the footage from before the first lights are red to see whether the taxi could have safely avoided being in that ASL or not.
