Dnk Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Just in case you didn't know which i didn't you can get large fines for breaking yellow box rules Box junctions. You must not stop in a yellow box junction (unless you are turning right and are prevented from advancing by oncoming traffic, or other vehicles turning right). Potential penalty: Fixed Penalty Notice of up to £70 outside London and up to £130 within London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 How did you not know?? Why else would there be big yellow lines that look like loads of X’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 (unless you are turning right and are prevented from advancing by oncoming traffic, or other vehicles turning right) Isn’t the point that you shouldn’t enter a yellow box if the above is preventing you turning not unless!? Otherwise what’s the point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 How did you not know?? Why else would there be big yellow lines that look like loads of X’s I new the box rules but didn't know about the fines !! I thought i'd post it on here in case anyone else didn't and save them getting a large fine, a guy on a BMW f/b page didn't and just got hit for £130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annabella Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Yes a bug bear of mine! Only found out myself a few months back about being ok to be stationary if turning right in a box jct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drift_bear Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 This is one of the most annoying things I have to deal with at my work! Due to the entrance of the shopping centre right next door. They don’t take any notice of the signs and the police don’t even bother when people are blocking the entrance/exit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
