So, Bill, it didn't take long---we have our first customer of the day.

So, when will people finally realize that you are not turning right from a left lane, you are exiting from an inner lane as per the correct procedure

Maybe the problem that people have trouble understanding is the analogy to a regular intersection explaining to enter from the left lane to go "left", the right lane to go "right" and either lane to go "straight". That's OK as a guide as to which lane to enter the RB, but the analogy ends there. The procedure for exiting a RB is different from a regular intersection, which has been pointed out 100x in this thread.
