UPDATE: Neil Mitchell has helped a grieving son get a “cruel” red light camera fine waived on sympathetic grounds.

James was driving between two ambulances, one carrying his gravely ill father, in October last year.

His father died in hospital shortly after arriving.

But he had no luck challenging the fine.

Until 3AW Mornings got in touch with Victoria Police.

“It’s restored my faith in humanity, to be honest,” James said.
