1. If you can, take pictures of where you crossed the line to show what the road looked like, during the time you made the lane change.
2. Show up in court, and dress "appropriately". There's always a chance the police officer wont show up.
Check the laws as it regards to highway driving. The officer doesn't know what your intent was, you might have been in the exit lane to bypass some traffic, or you might have changed your mind. Investigate the laws.
How many points are involved in this ticket? or is it fine only. Does that affect your insurance. If you do get the ticket, some states have "driver inprovement clinics" you still ahve to pay the fine, you have to pay for the course, but no points-- which saves a bundle in thelong run.
