I meant impede the traffic behind you
Yes, that would be true if you were crossing to an open single lane on the other side, where I needed to end up on his left.Yes you do move with the traffic;
But if you both turn right and you are positioned as the pic indicates as in front Right Hand Side, you have to drift across to the left side of the road in front of the driver when the turn is made, making yourself very vulnerable and also slowing down everyone behind you in the process.
I don't know how to explain it any better than that sorry
But the likely hood of either of us getting fully across to the end position at that junction in daytime is practically nil. There’s a turning ‘bay’ for want of a better word for cars so they can get across two lanes of traffic coming from their right and wait to enter their lane. This is a two way ‘filter bay’ so cars from other direction can enter the road we’ve just come from. (Which is one reason I don’t go to the left hand side on that junction).
I turn in the same arc as any car, but end up closer to the pedestrian crossing, we’ll out of everyone’s way while crossing, and awaiting my chance to get across to the bike lane on other side
No lights no turning arrows. We’re there ones I’d have been on the left
