Went though on green but the traffic backed up so I ended up stopping on, or just after the pedestrian crossing briefly before moving again.

I didn’t see that the traffic would suddenly back up due to the oncoming queue, the build up was because a car further ahead decided to let someone out of a side street, otherwise I could have probaly stopped at the lights.

I managed to turn down the road in time without becoming an obstacle, but because I stopped just after the lights and then moved again a few seconds later I’m wondering if I could have triggered the camera, I was stationary on the 3rd photo for around 3/4 seconds.

Unlikely as the trip point is normally at the stop line, but you will have to wait & see.

If you have any dashcam footage keep it just in case you may need it to use later.

If all of the vehicle is clear of the stopline whilst on green then the traffic light offence has not been commited and the camera is not likely to go off, course you could be committing other offences if stopped in the middle of a junction
