Default IL- Melrose Park- Red Light Camera

I got a ticket in the mail showing me clearly stopped behind the white, and then 5 seconds later my rear bumper is at the white line. They want $100 for this.



Timeline:
7:45:38 - My Spice Red Metallic 2006 Pontiac GTO appears in the camera’s range.
Traffic signal is Yellow, with car in front of me approaching the line
7:45:39 - Traffic signal turns Red, with car in front of just past the line
7:45:40 - I am decelerating with my right indicator light on
7:45:41 - I am stopped behind the line
7:45:42- I am stopped behind the line
7:45:43- I am stopped behind the line
7:45:44 - I start to make the right turn after verifying no other cars were coming
7:45:45 - I continue southbound on 5th
7:45:46 - My rear bumper reaches the end of the line
7:45:47 - I continue southbound on 5th
7:45:48 - My car is now out of range of the traffic camera, no violations committed.
7/18 I receive ticket from dbags

THE REAL PROOF
We have a lovely video proving my innocents. The 1st GTO is my friend, and the 2nd one is me clearly stopping for roughly 3 secs.

There was no "No right turn on Red Signs"

Melrose park is such a scamming town. I should have never gone there in the first place, but couldn't resist a little Auto X. I'm fighting this and should win.
