It's like the steering wheel will only move a 1/4 turn or something. I've seen the same thing in a parking lot where the lanes are tight. Instead of making a tight turn they'll swing all the way over to the opposite side almost skinning the bumper of the parked cars on the other side of the lane.
Good one, I notice the same thing.

Making a right hand turn and not merging to the right side of the street close to the curb. They need to impede traffic by maintaining a 10ft buffer away from the edge of the street when turning.
