file the ticket for trial and request disclosure
R. v. Capobianco, 2010 ONCA 589 (CanLII): http://canlii.ca/t/2cj6m
crown needs to not only prove that you failed to drive in a marked lane, but also that the manoeuvre was not made in safety.

(a) a vehicle shall be driven as nearly as may be practicable entirely within a single lane and shall not be moved from the lane until the driver has first ascertained that the movement can be made with safety;[/quote]
