I added the additional (non-standard) lane-to-lane connections after I was getting the problem with vehicles stopping at an intersection rather than entering an available lane. I'm attaching a picture with a similar problem when the road network has typical allowed lane-to-lane connections. The vehicles entering from the right want to turn to their left (from our perspective, down). I can see why cars are stopped before an intersection when the lane they are in forbids turning into the lane that happens to be open. The cars are not choosing to change into the lane that allows the turn they want to take.
You may very well be correct that the cars have decided in advance to enter the lane that is filled. However, my observations from the further downstream behavior seem to show that in many of these cases there is no good reason for the cars to be committed to a particular outgoing lane. In real life, I think, most drivers would get into the unoccupied lane. Is there a way to get vehicles to be smarter about choosing which lane to exit the intersection from?
