IF you stay in the right lane all the way around you are in danger of having your left side of your car smacked by people directed to turn right in left lane. It is NOT safe. If you are going to the third outlet you should be in left lane where you can turn right. If you are going to the first or second outlet then the right hand lane is safe.

So in essence if you plan to make a left on the intersection. Get in the left hand lane where you will make a right to go left. Simple.
