Usually when a driver swerves, it is to avoid hitting something, such as a dog which runs out in the street in front of him. If a driver weaves in and out of traffic, changing lanes erratically, then the police might stop him. "

The verb "swerve" could be used, but the one I usually hear is "weave."
