Is improper lane change a moving violation?
I was ticketed for an improper lane change while I was driving the other day. However, the law enforcement officer was rather vague regarding the ticket itself, so I still want to know more about it. Is an improper lane change considered a moving violation?

An improper lane change is definitely a moving violation because the infraction occurred while the car was in motion—or at least that’s the basic idea. Because it’s a moving violation, it’s a more serious traffic infraction that includes:
- Points on your license
- A fine
- More difficulty pleading the ticket down or getting it dismissed if you feel as though you’re innocent
Because an improper lane change may substantially increase your car insurance costs, shopping quotes on the
