Spring Chicken you're confusing a left turn with a right turn. The original poster wanted to know how to make a right turn when a golf cart lane is to your immediate right. This has been discussed several times in the past and KYWildcat has the right idea.
Don't golf carts merge into the car lane when they are going to make a left turn? The same is true for cars wanting to make a right turn. When there is adequate spacing, merge your car partially into the cart lane, essentially creating a sequence between vehicles of different type. Cart drivers love it, because they know your intentions, just like a turn signal can alert drivers of your intentions. I've been doing this everyday on St. Charles for the past five years and it works beautifully.

Not confused about anything. I was not replying to the OP, I was replying to the poster that I quoted and I disagree with the following statement:
"I personally think that when in a street that has the bike/cart lane that this is to be regarded as a four lane road."
It is NOT a four lane road and was never intended to be.
