I realize some people may find this to be an unacceptable inconvenience...but hey.
No idea what you were talking about in your message. They are making a very legal left turn but it is to do a U-turn to get going the opposite direction from where they pulled out because of the limited access to 466. So they are making a legal U turn from a legal left turn lane. An example would be from Village of la Zamora gate! Their next choice for a stoplight would be all the way down to Morris at 466. But if everybody is driving in the left lane they have no chance of doing the U-turn to head eastbound on 466!
