Blocked from leaving box junction

Next time, swap lanes yourself to the right, and slap right hand indicator on (assuming you can turn right). You're allowed to wait in a yellow box junction if turning right.

"Rule 174
Box junctions. These have criss-cross yellow lines painted on the road (see ‘Road markings’). 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."

So basically I didn't break any rule, but if the council has a camera on it I would have a hard time proving that?
