People are patient with bikes in the turning lane for the most part, provided the rider knows what they're doing and doesn't hold them up, and especially doesn't make them miss the light.
Many of the times I've been honked at (I know, another thread) it's been because I had a hard time getting clipped into my pedals when the light changed. And when they start honking, it makes it even harder to clip in. I always try to stay clipped in if possible, but some lights are longer than my trackstanding abilities, unfortunately.
