Especially if I'm in the far right lane going straight, and the guy behind me wants to turn right.

i would suggest spending the time working on your shifting instead of trying to setup a neutral brake light trigger. maybe adjust your shifter down lower so it's easier to up-shift?
also i would recommend against shifting into neutral at lights... i've been saved by staying in gear more than once when sitting at a light because some idiot isn't paying attention and would have rearended me if i didn't notice them looking down while pulling up full speed... plus its one more thing you have to do when taking off... plus it makes your left hand's fingers wicked strong
