Around Houston, there were a couple of places where it was specifically signed that one could not make a turn (usually a right turn) at the intersection if there was a turning bay with a triangular/porkchop island. However at others there is no explicit signage and in fact there's one intersection where it's specifically signed that one can turn out of the second lane at the intersection where it was signed before "no right turn around island". To more directly answer the question, I don't think there is a law in Texas saying that one must use the turning lane if it's present. It's often ill-advised to make a right turn at the intersection itself in those cases, though. -- Shawn K.
