I didn’t go through a red light but was unsure how fast I was going I was behind another car but not sure on the distance, there’s no lines on the floor and I’m sure I didn’t see a flash? I go past it everyday but totally forget about it today.....

Pretty sure that's a red light camera. Lack of lines on the road would back that up, so if you didn't get a flash and didn't go throught a red light then I suspect you're OK.

Red light cameras can do both red light and speed enforcement (most are usually Gatso, Truvelo or Redguard)

If there’s no lines on the floor is it just a red light camera?

Gatso Type 36 - traffic light enforcement only.

Also, best not to rely on an absence of dragon's teeth to think it's safe to bomb past a speed camera - the painted road markings are not necessarily required.

Cheers for the reply it’s a gatso For sure On way home from work I seen it saying gatso and it’s been there for years definitely no lines though.. And I certainly wasn’t speeding dangerously I was just keeping up with traffic but I never looked at my speedo which I always do when driving, I don’t even know if I was speeding tbh was just precautious when I got past it

It's easy to distingush the Gatso 36 from the Gatso 24.
The casing for the former is around half the width of the latter.

The Type 36 RLC is triggered by ground loops in the road whereas the type 24 uses radar.
