What does this sign mean?

If it's busy, they may be passing you on the left, so watch out for them. Times on the sign will show the lane's hours of operation; if no times are shown, or there's no sign at all, this means the lane is in operation 24 hours a day. In some areas, other vehicles, such as taxis and motorcycles, are allowed to use bus lanes. The sign will show if this is the case.

When may you stop and wait in a box junction?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Rules of the road - When may you stop and wait in a box junction? The purpose of yellow box markings is to keep junctions clear of queuing traffic.
