In Osceola Hills, we leave at a roundabout where it is easy to go left or right.
That's an actual fair point. It's true, having to wait for the trip to activate before being able to take a left can be annoying. Especially if you have ice cream melting in the car, and you get to the light RIGHT after it turned red - and the trip activator hasn't reset and therefore doesn't know you're there.

I've had to wait two cycles of the light changes before the left turn light finally engaged. And one time, I waited for a fourth one - and it never came, so I said to hell with it and made the left turn illegally. It was obviously not working correctly.
