I have no issue with taking the lane as it's what I do anyway, but I feel kinda bad about butting in line then going slow. Sometimes waiting at the light for 3-4 minutes in the cold rain (when I just miss the left turn signal) makes me think I shouldn't care so much. What's the best way to handle two part turns in this situation?
