See those two cars coming toward us? Well, size matters in China. They had to back up to give us space to cut into the correct lane of traffic, which would have been easier if the lane had been treated as the single lane it was rather than two lanes. This is the view on the side of the bus:
Remember, this is one lane! It wasn't just this intersection--this is fairly typical of traffic in China, as far as we could tell. It will be some time before I complain about Utah drivers.
