Answer by  Kellye (7)

An usafe lane change is a moving violation and the points can very from state to state. Typically, an unsafe lane change is a minor offense and often incurring low points assessment on a license. In most states it adds two points to your license if you are guilty of the traffic violation.

It depends on the state in which the violation took place. In California, for example, one point is taken off, but in oher states (such as Utah) they'll take off as many as 40.

The amount of points varies from state to state, but because unsafe lane changes are regarded as relatively minor offenses, it's likely that the amount of points taken off are quite low.

I think it depends where you live, or where your license is from. Where I live (Quebec) it's 3 demerit points if you cross a solid line when approaching a stop light. It could be different when getting on or off a highway, or within a restricted / construction zone.

It is a moving violation and would probably be a careless driving ticket and would be 2 points, that's in Florida anyways. If you caused an accident it would be more and i higher fine.

It would really depend on the state that you got a citation for the unsafe lane change. State laws vary widely with the points that they assess for an unsafe lane change.

It all depends on the state that you are living in. If you did this in another state it's possible that you may not even get any points off. You will have to contact your local DMV to find out how many points were deducted.
