Failure to Yield charges in North Carolina
Failure to yield is charged when you allegedly didn't give right-of-way where required — at intersections, to pedestrians, or when merging. These tickets are common after minor collisions where fault is disputed. In North Carolina, a conviction adds demerit points toward the North Carolina DMV suspension threshold of 12 points in 3 years, and the conviction follows you to your insurer.

Defenses that actually work
Defenses focus on who actually had right-of-way, unclear or obstructed sightlines, the other driver's contributory conduct, and the absence of independent witnesses.
