I had 2 speeding tickets come through the letterbox on the same day a few years ago!     

Got away with the course for one, but had to pay the £60 and take the 3 points for the other. 

In my defence, I'd been living abroad for a while and didn't know that they'd converted the traffic light cameras to speed cameras as well, and two days on the trot I'd sped through the lights before it went red. Sneaky bastards!

Are you sure it didn’t say Red X ‘Enforced’, which means that anyone caught travelling in a closed lane will be fined. It’s basically letting you know that there are cameras on that gantry to spot people using the closed lane and they ‘will’ enforce the fine for doing so.

Very possibly
I still find the wording very strange. Imagine being a foreigner (or Welsh) and seeing that, and trying to make sense of it. Surely just a green tick or a red X above the relevant lane would get the message across ?

Wont work for the majority of the woke generation
Driving is an inconveiance for them, they need to have their noses in their phones all the time to see if someone or thing has offended them. They are not looking at what is going on around them to notice something as silly as a red X to tell them to move lanes. They have to be somewhere, doesnt everybody else know that? They are important, you should know that
