" I can't recall ever needing to doing it in 50 years of driving. I also suspect that most such genuine cases are overturned on appeal if reasonable evidence and timings are produced."
Strangely enough during my service I have seen hundreds of people commit offences to facilitate my movement through traffic and I thank them for their public spiritedness and courtesy. Fortunately there are no traffic light cameras in our area or things may have been different.
And most genuine cases should not need to go to appeal, process should never have been started. Causing unnecessary anguish for normally law abiding citizens if common sense and discretion had been applied during the processing of the images.
There really are enough weapons grade dangerous idiots out there who need fettling.
When I was training I used to say that the only thing black and white in the service was the chequered band around the hats. Everything else was grey.
