18th st North traffic lights and lack of paint.

Okay, I've complained to myself about this long enough...Now you get to listen to me gripe.
You know the set of lights on 18th north that connects with #1 Highway? Say your driving North (to Tim Hortons for example). There are two lanes at the stop line (technically 3 including the right turning lane, but for story sake, let's stick with the 2 in question).
There is a straight lane, and a left turn only lane right? now stay with me.... When heading South (or coming back from Tim hortons) on that same set of lights, there is also only 2 lanes. A left turn ONLY lane, and a straight/right turn lane.
So why is it, EVERYONE and their dog sits in the left turn lane to go straight?!?!? There ends up being like 3 cars sitting beside each other, and they all attempt to go straight or turn, but no one really knows where anyone is going....It's rediculous! Paint some lines already!
I have another rant about the other set of lights up there, but I'll save that for another discussion...
