I get cyclists using the road. Here where i live there is no infrastructure for bycles. I have been there and it's hideous to cooperate with cars on the road. the only problem i have with cyclists are the ones that think thar bikes don't have to abide to circulation laws. For example, in a country that drives on the right. I had a cyclist behind me, i turn on the indicator to turn right and as i turn the cyclist overtakes me from the right and then acts pissed because i almost put them under. Let's not speak about the ones that take one way roads from the wrong sides to take a shortcut.
The only place on my commute where I interact with left turning vehicles (we keep left, so it's the same as your right turning ones) we have a bike lane which strongly implies bikes going straight ahead have right of way
When it's a car turning, I make sure I'm not going to be in the intersection until they are already turning
When it's a public bus, they wait for me before moving. I think our bus drivers get some instruction on how to act around bikes
