Seems like we've agreed that keeping to a designated lane is a concern. If a driver cranks it to full lock when doing a 180 turn without drifting, they are probably doing better than the other 90% of the drivers that don't even think of it. Or the pedestrians, red-light-turners that wouldn't anticipate it either
For most drivers, there is plenty of room: 12m needed vs 15m available, before getting into the right-hand lane. This is MUCH easier than a typical U-turn.
