you will continue to have other types of turns including UPRs where the car will keep waiting when there is an opening leading to people honking behind you. Sounds like what you're saying is it would be an improvement...but it absolutely is still not good enough if it always has to wait for adjacent lanes
I always wait for adjacent lanes to clear when I drive (in the appropriate circumstances of course). I don’t get honked at. This has been discussed before anyway. The timing requirements are different but it is fine to wait for clear lanes to avoid any chance of a collision.
With three lanes of traffic, depending on speed, on a right turn, I may ALSO wait for all three lanes to clear, or at least for traffic to pass the obvious “danger” point.
It’s just a math and trajectory problem.
In this case, to simplify the bet, it is:
5 seconds, 5 seconds, 6 seconds, 5 seconds, 5 seconds, no gap requirement (should not gate go/no-go) (from near lane to far lane).
In reality it is more like 5,5,6,5,3,x
For a right turn it would be something like 4,3,x
