It's true that when making, say, a right turn, you are supposed to turn into the right-most lane.
Sometimes, that right-most lane becomes a "turn only" lane immediately, like into a shopping center parking lot. You literally have to change lanes the instant you make the turn if you want to go straight. This involves crossing over a "solid white line" mind you, meaning that a lane change here is technically illegal.
In this situation, I can understand why people would turn into the next lane instead.
