It’s important for drivers to choose a lane and remain between the lines. Weaving in and out of traffic or veering into someone else’s lane is dangerous. These activities are illegal in Virginia, and they may result in a traffic citation.
When a driver crosses into a lane that’s already occupied by another vehicle, it can cause a serious crash. In Eastern Virginia, we see many lane change wrecks happening on Route 17 (George Washington Memorial Highway), Interstate 64, and numerous rural four-lane roads.

Changing lanes is one of the most difficult things to learn when you start driving. It involves important steps that must be performed in the right order.
Follow these steps when you want to move into a new lane:
For car drivers, a blind spot is an area around the vehicle where you cannot detect an object without turning your head. Blind spots are on both sides of your car, extending about 10 feet behind you. If a car is traveling in your blind spot, you won’t be able to detect it by looking in a mirror. That’s why it’s so important to briefly look back over your shoulder before you begin making a lane change.
Semi-trucks have large blind spots on all four sides, and the passenger side blind spot extends across several lanes. So always be cautious when passing a truck on either side and don’t linger in a lane when you are traveling next to a big rig truck.
If you were injured by a driver who made a careless lane change in Virginia, GibsonSingleton Virginia Injury Attorneys will investigate the accident by gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and retrieving available surveillance or dashcam video. We will also review the police report and accident scene photos to find out who caused the accident.
In many cases, a driver who makes an unsafe lane change ends up causing a crash. As soon as our investigation is complete, GibsonSingleton Virginia Injury Attorneys will file a claim or lawsuit against anyone whose negligent actions contributed to your injuries. If the other side fails to make a reasonable offer, we’re always prepared to take them to court.
