One route I take includes a left turn from a left turn only lane on a 4-lane divided road with heavy traffic. Getting over into that left turn lane can be a ballsy affair. Luckily the timing of the lights are such that, if I don't hammer too hard, the light at the intersection will change to red before I am all the way to the intersection and I can filter over to the left as the cars are stopping for the light.
