Here's another take on it;

In fact, you can't even begin to merge at that intersection for another 400 feet. But yeah, it's Starbuck's fault, since there's a left turn into the shopping center *before* Campbell. Let alone the left turn to nowhere before that. Yeah, that's the ticket, the motorist was trying to make a left turn and wanted to get a jump on the merge.

Or not. The excuses we will make.....
