    Why not just plow through them while cutting the corner?

    That seems hot. Is there a cooler way to do it? My engine may overheat.

    I do like attention (apparently). Thank you for the advice. I will add this to my 1.2 million mile experience repertoire.

    Why would you cut the corner? I don't have scissors. Would it pierce the concrete?

    I guess you're turning right........wait until the traffic clears in the right hand lane of the traffic coming from the right. Pull all the way into that lane and make your turn. Just takes patience is all.
