Walter has posted HC rule 154 which shows it is legal.
If vehicles are close together, one will generally have proceeded over
the first white line at the time the signal turns red.


Only if the driver ignores the meaning of an amber traffic light.


Nope. If the vehicles are close enough, one of them will have to wait
between the different Stop Lines, in order to obey the HC and the law. And
vehicles approaching traffic lights in London are often close enough to
stop a Taxi pulling into the gap.



So you are talking about the case where a car is in a queue moving slowly
forward. The traffic lights change from green after he has passed the first
stop line and before he has passed the second line.


And other cases.
