I would agree with that strategy, with one proviso: with the amount of traffic currently on main roads like Morse, long lines of cars often form at the traffic lights or behind someone turning left, so the car driver should be careful not to move across too early or the cart lane will come to a stand-still too. Having said that, I should prefer to wait in line behind a turning car than be side-swiped by it at the junction.
