An unsafe lane change is defined as moving out of the lane of travel without ensuring that it is safe to do so. The consequences of this deceptively simple action can be complex and devastating. Unsafe lane changes can quickly cause a chain reaction of destruction, particularly if a larger vehicle collides with a smaller one.
Examples of an unsafe lane change include failing to signal before changing lanes, moving into a neighboring lane of travel and striking another car, causing an adjacent car to brake suddenly, or hitting an oncoming car head-on if passing.
