I have this exact situation in a few places on my commute, the only
difference is Im ready for it. Fortunately for me, my lanes are pretty wide
so I ride a little over (4" to the left)of the center line between the right turn lane
and straight thru lane. Cars can get by me on either side. I also look left and
right as a communication to them I am aware they are around and I will not
veer into either lane. As for the angry motorist beepage......thats just to be
expected, after all you probably made that guy actually lift his foot to place
on the brake pedal thereby forcing him to arrive at the next red lite 50' away
1.5 seconds later than he would have.
