Sadly most cyclists don't know how to use the boxes effectively. Take the top of Tooley Street: an occasion where I do filter to the front, I'm sat there looking to turn left when another cyclist turns up having also filtered to the front stops on my left. I tell him I'm going down Borough High Street and he says he's going over London bridge. I ask why he hasn't used the (apart from us) empty box to my right? (I should have smiled but was soooooo tired because I think he took it the wrong way when I also suggested he signalled his intent to the massive truck waiting behind also turning right when he got a bit stroppy).
The box was made for filling
that is what you should do
one of these days if you're not careful
the truck will filter over you
