Default traffic lights in Wandsworth - what's legal?

John, I think you are right: there would be nothing to stop you from
travelling beyond the stop line in the middle lane when the main light
was green, and then edging over to the right (effectively undertaking
the filter-queue there) and waiting for the right-hand turn light to
turn green.


Why wait for that? The green light gives you permission to turn right
immediately, so long as there is a gap in the oncoming traffic.

You are right - yes you can turn as soon as it's safe to do so.
