150: Box junctions. These have criss-cross yellow lines painted on the road. You must not enter the box until your exit road or lane is clear. However, YOU MAY ENTER THE BOX AND WAIT WHEN YOU WANT TO TURN RIGHT, and are only stopped from doing so by oncoming traffic, or by other vehicles waiting to turn right. At signalled roundabouts you MUST NOT enter the box unless you can cross over it completely without stopping.

No, you should only enter a yellow box junction when the way is clear and safe to do so. Your exit must also be clear as otherwise you will be blocking the junction, the purpose for the yellow criss cross lines. It is a fairly basic error for a driving test and you can also get caught on driving cameras!! Safe driving!!

Interesting question. Not if your exit is blocked by traffic in the road you are turning into. If you are turning right but waiting for vehicles coming the other way and your exit is not blocked you can.
I always wondered what would happen if you were waiting to turn right into a road which was clear but then that road got blocked by cars coming the other way turning left.

No, you can't enter a box junction at any circumstances if your exit is blocked. In London, you will get fined £100!

Yes, you can only stop in a box junction if you are turning right and you are blocked by oncoming traffic.

Yes.
That's the only time you can stop on a yellow box - If you are turning right and your progress is only stopped by oncoming traffic or other traffic turning right.
Look it up in the highway code.

Yes.
The only time you can stop on a yellow box is if you are turning right and your way is only being blocked by oncoming traffic.

Stopping on a box junction in London is the best way to get carjacked, so the answer would be no.

Yes you can - it is in fact the only time you can stop in a box junction.

you may no longer enter the container junction except your go out is obvious. you will likely in simple terms get the positive in this one. yet you'll be careful in destiny, or you are able to desire to wind up in greater hassle.
