How do you ride safely where the double lanes end at the crossroad with a 4 lane road, or what I'm calling a "T" intersection. The left lane turns left and the right lane turns right and I'm actually going straight to the opposite side.

There are cross walks and traffic lights with a touch pad to activate the lights for pedestrians.

1) Do you take the cross walk by activating the light?
2) Take the left lane and go straight?
3) Take the right lane and go straight?
4) Take the middle ground between lanes and go straight?

Cars in the right lane can turn right at a red light. Cars in the left lane have to wait for a green light.

This is my only problem intersection where I usually activate the cross walk. I find cars in the right lane hug the corner and often cross over the bike lane, leaving no room. If I wait behind cars already waiting at the light and stay in the bike lane, approaching cars usually try and drive around me and don't recognize I intend to go straight.

Also, this intersection sees very little foot traffic, it's away from downtown and shopping.

So, what's the safest and right way to cross?
