I thought so too at first. The road rule is not about being out of the intersection once the light is red, but the vehicle not crossing the stop line once the light turns red. If you’re in the intersection on amber, you can complete the crossing even if the light turns red and no infringement. That’s my research anyway.
There are a fair few intersections in Melbourne where you couldn't ever move if you couldn't be in the intersection as it goes from amber to red and then complete the crossing. Denmark St northbound turning right into High St Kew, for example, is impossible otherwise.
