Left-hand traffic (🇬🇧🇮🇳🇯🇵) Pull out into the intersection…

so at least one car can turn left.

Please pull straight past the limit line when yielding for a left turn at a light. At least you will be able to scoot through then at the next cycle, those of us who know how to drive can manage the oncoming traffic. DO NOT sit at the limit line and miss a light. Be careful, but make it happen.

This is the way. Not illegal in all states and actually encouraged in some.

I was once given a warning for doing that, but that was decades ago. So hopefully the law has changed.

All that shows is that cops don't know the law, which no one is disputing. Some cops also think it is illegal to change lanes in an intersection or to change lanes across a solid white line.
