Is Lane Changing Always Full Responsibility?
1 Answers
Lane changing is not always full responsibility. In the event of an accident during a lane change, the responsibility is determined based on the behavior of the vehicles involved. The details are as follows: Division of responsibility in lane changing: If the changing vehicle has not successfully completed the lane change and a collision occurs with a vehicle in the original lane, the changing vehicle is fully responsible. If the changing vehicle has completely entered the new lane before the collision and is then rear-ended by another vehicle, the rear-ending vehicle is fully responsible. If the changing vehicle rear-ends a vehicle that is driving normally in its lane, regardless of whether the lane change was successful or not, the rear-ending vehicle is fully responsible. Precautions for lane changing: When changing lanes to the left or right, it should not be done too slowly. The changing vehicle is fully responsible for any accidents. Long-distance driving on lane markings can affect other vehicles, so it is best to change lanes within a distance of 50 to 60 meters. When encountering obstacles, change lanes in advance to prevent collisions caused by forced lane changes. During lane changes, it is not allowed to ride on lane dividers, solid center lines, or solid edge lines for an extended period.
