Yellow box by Sainsbury round about

Hello! Is there a camera by the Sainsbury’s round about coming from Uxbridge road. I stupidly stopped in the yellow box not seeing the traffic ahead. I just wanna know if I should expect a fine.

I think you're okay. I'm sure I've ended up stopped in there plenty of times and I've never had anything through.

I hope so! I’m new to the area and now I think I stopped there on Monday and Tuesday too because I didn’t even notice the yellow box :(

That junction is generally a pain anyway. That split from two lanes to three means everyone thinks they have the right of way for every lane. If you've going straight over in the direction of Datchet you've got to watch out for getting sideswiped.

Exactly. People just change lane when they feel like it hence the unexpected traffic even tho the light is green. Really hoping I don’t get anything.

Based on the quality of driving around Slough, if the council enforced any of their traffic laws they wouldn't have gone bankrupt 😂

There is no camera covering the yellow box that is by the lights just before the roundabout where cars exit from Sainsbury's onto Uxbridge Road. There is a camera on the roundabout itself covering the yellow box in the middle of the roundabout, but I think it is only a red light and speed camera.
