I can understand what you are saying Jenny, but at this particular junction does it make much difference. Even if the car in front of you was to move into the yellow box,how would that then free you to move on. As until the car in front went round the corner they'd still be blocking that line wouldn't they?

I will not enter a yellow box, even if it allowed to do so, whilst wating at traffic lights in case Ambulance, Fire or Police need to get through a junction at high speed, if these junctions are blocked it could be the difference between life or death, so if a driver behind is honking their horn, more fool them, motorists should remember that it is better to be 10 mins late in this life that 5 mins early in the next.

Jenny. I hope you are never waiting for an Ambulance for a loved one that is stuck in traffic on the A6 after posting a comment like that.

And whilst you're quoting the rules of the highway code Jenny, you might want to consider that whilst that agressive blast of your horn is helping vent your fustration, it is when all said and done not accomplishing much and is illegal,

So whilst I agree with you Jenny concerning the issue of boxes (entering is all to do with your exit being free), you should not use your horn for this as you are stationary (see below) ... Having said that, I would probably do the same:)
"A horn should only be used when warning someone of danger, not to indicate your annoyance at a manner of driving.
A horn should not be sounded when stationary on a road at anytime, other than at times of danger due to another vehicle on or near the road.
A horn should not be used on a moving vehicle on a restricted road (basically a road that has street lights and a 30mph limit) between the times of 2330hrs and 0700hrs."
