Drivers who make unsafe lane changes are a major cause of car accidents. One study from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found that crossing over the edge of the lane was the critical pre-crash event for nearly 11 percent of all accidents.
Another study from the Insurance Information Institute found that about 7.2 percent of all fatal crashes in a recent year were caused by drivers and motorcycle riders for failure to maintain their lane. These figures show that thousands of lives are impacted every year by drivers making unsafe lane changes.

Unsafe lane change accident cases are different from other types of car accident claims. Because these accidents often happen quickly and at high speeds, it can be difficult to determine who caused the accident and should be held liable for the other party’s injuries.
Unsafe lane change accidents also tend to cause more severe injuries than other types of accidents, making the stakes much higher for the party making a claim.
