Which type of fault involves a sideways motion?

A strike-slip fault involves a sideways motion where two blocks of the Earth's crust slide past each other horizontally. This type of fault is typically associated with transform plate boundaries. The movement is primarily lateral, with little to no vertical displacement. An example of a strike-slip fault is the San Andreas Fault in California.
