If you come to LA, you'll see there's no way to avoid it. The majority of lights are unprotected left turn lanes. The cops here even break the laws and no one judges. Sure, everyone could make 3 right turns instead, but I'd imagine if everyone did that the damage from wasted fuel, smog, and extra traffic would outweigh the few accidents that happen due to cheating the left turns.
