Red means stop - but green means go

If you jump a red light – you’re going to get fined. Any driver will know that. But it also works the other way around.

A Geneva driver in his seventies was fined CHF 250 for not going when the light turned green.

The driver’s son said he has been distracted by his grand child in the back. 

The driver says he doesn’t know how long he was sitting at the green light – but he does point out it wasn’t rush hour and there were no other cars around at the time. 

However, he isn’t disputing he didn’t go when the light was green – and so he paid the fine.
