I never suggested using relations to "solve" it. I don't think it needs solving. You cross the roads at a 90 degree angle and ignore the turning lane. People know you have to get into the left hand turning lane to make a left hand turn (a jughandle would look altogether different as the jughandle itself would constitute a new way). Right now turning restrictions already require a relation, though this relation could actually be avoided if you allowed "lane" to be a "way" (you'd simply have nodes for the lanes that connect and no nodes for the lanes that don't connect). Each lane would already be one-way unless you're talking about a road where both directions share the same lane. > I guess for the most part we don't.
