Yeah that's sort of what I was getting at. Most turn throughs are a yield. I finally saw it on the Bing maps street view you provided. And I went back to the Google maps streetview that livedarklions provided and finally got a shot of the yield sign on that apparently older imaging. However at that time the yield sign had been run over and it was almost laying on the ground.
Regardless of the existence of the sign, the proper way to deal with that kind of intersection is to look for cross traffic and yield to any.

In such a configuration, there would need to be a light for each lane (one light wouldn't be used to cover 2 or more lanes).

The right turn lane has a yield sign.

Images taken in 1/2022, 2/2022, and 3/2022 show a yield sign. It’s possible it was changed to something else later.
Keep in mind that other people were talking about traffic lights in images that were not controlling that turn.
