My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California

I received a red light camera ticket that clearly shows in the photographs that the light was green.
At the time it went off, I thought it must have been for someone else because I had stopped and waited for the green light and it startled me cause I did nothing wrong.

When the photos came and showed it was green, I thought it was a fairly simple thing to appeal and they would see the lights are green and that would be the end of it.
I just received word my appeal was rejected and the fine stands.

So my question is - is it possible to have been in the wrong if the lights in the photographs are green?


Many thanks
