Despite usually appreciating your comments, advises and thoughts I'm completely surpised to read this issue Especially your item 2 explanation that maybe "you will never be able to turn right". Do realise that the same applies for pedastrians: they also need to get a chance to cross the street safely without a constant flow of cars and trucks pushing through. Since a car is stronger (a dent in the car is not as bad as an personal injury) it can't be true that such is the reason that the car can push himself through the pedestrians. (which is the reason pedestrians will wait for teh cars in the end). Besides, you will be able to turn right as soon as the pedestrian traffic light turns red again (...)
A related thing that iiritates me is the fact that the traffic assistants and police do take care about people standing 10 centimeters too far on the street when waiting for a red light but never try to intervene when another right-turning car is pushing through the pedastrians.
Anayway, as you can see, you at least raised an interesting topic!
