I received a notice by mail of a traffic law violation, 309.1 Failure to observe a light signal. The notice indicates that the red light time was 1.1 seconds. I submitted an appeal asking if the authority could consider that the red light duration occurred after our car was already in the intersection. I believe it occurred during rush hour, and timing is difficult to predict. I wish to comply with all laws and do not want advice on breaking any laws. How likely is it that the authority would consider an appeal under these circumstances and grant any relief toward the expensive CHF 250 fine? We are seniors and saved for a long time to visit beautiful Switzerland. The high fine is difficult for us to afford. Thank you for any thoughts. submitted by /u/Key-Quality6268
