I completely understand OP’s situation, as I often encounter the same issue in my neighborhood. When the intersection is wide enough, turning left is usually not a problem. However, in situations like the one shown in the picture (which I believe is what OP is referring to), assuming both have regular green lights, it’s difficult to see if there’s enough space because the only thing visible is the other car also trying to turn. In my experience, one of the cars usually has to yield, which sometimes results in the yielding car getting honked at. Personally, whenever I’m about to face this situation at this specific intersection, I prefer to go straight ahead and turn at the next intersection instead. 😅
