In what way does a box junction have the same status as a Stop
sign?
You
don't have to stop *before* crossing them, and stopping *on* them
is
allowed
if you are waiting to turn right across oncoming traffic.

Is it? IWUTI that your exit had to be clear *before* venturing
into
the box

But what if your exit road is clear when you go into the box, but
gets
blocked by oncoming cars turning left and then witing in a queue?
:-)

I don't think the Highway Code provides advice as to best course of
action to take under that particular set of circumstances. A recent
posting established exactly what the Code does advise...
