If you are in the appropriate lane for the turn you intend to make, and the car in front of you isn't moving, I'm pretty sure the law doesn't require you to pick a different destination or ram the car ahead of you. What the law should be is a different question, but cop you would just see a bunch of tickets thrown out in quick succession. I don't know what that realistically means for the job, but it can't be good.
