If i jump a red light to let an ambulance through,will i get a summon?
I was on my kapchai when this happen and there are about 10 motorcyclist whom do the same.
There is camera on the traffic light and i'm sure its 100% working as i saw it snap picture with flash the other night.

Personally, you have done 2 things, being a good citizen : smile_big.gif
1) By giving way to ambulance, thus helping another person's life... smile_thumbup.gif
2) If you been summoned, you sacrifice your money to the govt in order to buy more ambulance lor... smile_thumbup.gif

I would hope that the case would be that you would not receve a summons or a fine, did you fully jump a light or just pull over the boundaries in order to let the ambulance pass?

If you're caught by the traffic camera, you will receive the saman. I was told by a figure from the authorities that if you were able to prove (now here's the tricky part) that you were making way for the ambulance, the saman will be waived. Perhaps you can ask them to check if the camera did catch an ambulance breaking the light seconds later?

Nevertheless, just remember that if an ambulance or fire truck comes up your rear with blaring sirens, you need to make way for them, even if it means jumping a red light, which under other circumstances cannot be forgiven.

You are absolutely right. Do check if other cars are coming from the green light's direction.
