Why ask if they’re always going to write the ticket?
Or is the point that they observe somebody running a definitely-red and might give a warning if the person fesses up, but not if the person claims it was amber?
It's a confession, right. I think the cop will also note the confession on the back of the ticket in case it comes up in court. But they also have discretion to give a warning.
