How close must a driver be to an intersection to legally pass?

In Nebraska, the law stipulates that a driver must not pass another vehicle when they are within 100 feet of an intersection. This rule is designed to ensure safety by minimizing the risk of accidents that could occur if a vehicle were to attempt to overtake another right before entering an intersection, where the likelihood of encountering turning vehicles or pedestrians increases. This distance ensures that a driver has adequate visibility and space to deal with any potential hazards that may arise in the vicinity of the intersection.
