Yellow box junction, possible pcn?

I had to stop in a yellow box junction this morning for a few seconds, I was wondering going by this video. Would I receive a pcn and if I did, would I be able to appeal?

Basically, a small lorry was oncoming and started turning left, I wanted to turn right into the same road. The road we were turning in to was clear, so I followed the lorry as it made its turn. The lorry had to slow down, stop briefly and slowly continuing turning because a car in the opposite lane on the road he was turning in to was stopped a ways after the road marking stop line. Therefore, I had to stop in the box junction.

I may be wrong...


But I always thought its not the fact you aren't meant to stop in box junctions... which is the offence.


But...


You aren't meant to enter the yellow box unless your exit is clear so you can pass through the box???

This is you...

Seriously though I would imagine that your video evidence would definitely assist in the event of a PCN.

You are correct. Thanks.

Just found the following on the TFL website.

You may enter a yellow box junction when your exit is clear and there is enough space on the other side of the junction for your vehicle to clear the box completely without stopping.

You can stop in a yellow box junction when turning right if you are prevented from turning by oncoming traffic, or by other vehicles waiting to turn right.

Do not simply follow the vehicle in front as it may stop and prevent your exit and don't let other drivers pressure you to enter the box when a clear exit is not available.

That dashcam is terrible, check techmoan's and other youtube reviews and get a new one.
