Maryland  |  Traffic Law

I was driving down the road and it's a decline leading to a light on a Saturday morning. The light ahead (about 30 feet or so) turns yellow. I think, maybe I can make it through, but then decide to press the brakes. My car starts skidding (it had been raining the night before and was still drizzling at that time) and the brakes lock up as I cruise through the intersection (probably going 5mph and came to a stop right after the stop light).

Yesterday, I receive a red light camera ticket. Do I protest it, or pay it?

In the picture, it shows I'm going 0mph and my brake lights are lit in the middle of the intersection.

Thanks
