Sure, but I don't see it as a fairness issue; I see it as a safety
issue.  I had way too many right-hook close calls back when I used to
pass on the right at intersections (rather than queueing up).  Since I
now queue up, I never have such close calls.
------------------------------------------------

I avoid the right-hook problem by never queing up further than the right 
rear fender of the first car in the que.  That way, if the car starts to 
turn, I have space to brake.  If the first car has its right turn signal on, 
I que at the right front fender of the second car in the que.
