Improper Lane Change charges in North Carolina
An improper lane change alleges you changed lanes unsafely or without signaling. It is commonly issued after near-misses or minor collisions and is often subjective. 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.
Why fight your Improper Lane Change ticket?
Defenses that actually work
Attorneys question the officer's vantage point, whether a signal was actually given, lane-marking visibility, and the safety of the maneuver in context.
