It may be different now, but there was a time when many of the lights on Florida were not set correctly. In fact, years ago I remember someone fighting a ticket in court and winning because they had taken the time to go to the intersection with a stop watch and time the intervals between light changes and compare the results to what the State Hwy Dept was supposed to have the light set to. Hopefully with all the new electronics and computers they are more accurate now.
Of course there's no excuse for running a light. I think the first one to get a ticket was a policeman late at night at the Sherwood and Airline camera. And he wasn't on a call at the time. It seems like it made the news.
