lane change
Switching traffic paths
A lane change is the act of moving a vehicle from one lane of traffic to another, typically on a highway or multi-lane road.
The maneuver requires checking mirrors and blind spots before signaling: She made a quick lane change to pass the slower truck.
Frequent or aggressive lane changes, sometimes called lane weaving, are associated with reckless driving.
