Road limit is 50 alongside a speed camera and a traffic light turning left?

Hey so I was driving this morning and I was driving on a road that had the speed limit written as 50 in a circle! There was a speed camera next to it and a traffic light which was green arrow for the people turning left. So I turned left as that was the plan but I don't know if the camera flashed! I was doing well under the speed limit and especially when I was about to turn left!

    The traffic camera is not for catching safe drivers. Common sense tells you what happens when you try to turn left at 50....are you talking MPH or KPH. 50 KPH isn't all that fast as long as the road is broad and has a gentle radius. 50 MPH is tire-screeching dangerous. Some turns on highway 101 in Washington state are like that. If you miss your turn, try the next exit and go back.

    What exactly are you waffling about?

    You turned left at a green traffic light - perfectly legal.

    You were travelling at less than the speed limit - perfectly legal.

    The speed limit was "written as 50 in a circle! " - perfectly normal.

    Maybe you shouldn't be driving.......

    If you were following the law then it doesn't matter if the camera flashed or not. All film gets reviewed by a human before they decide which people to send tickets to.
