Passing is allowed in some intersections?

Question

Ok so I live in Minnesota and I am taking driver's ed. And in Minnesota you can pass in some intersections. When can you do this? Like at which intersections?

Answer 1

There is NO passing in intersections.  

What you may be thinking about is where there is multiple lanes in each direction, which is not technically passing if you happen to be driving faster in your lane.

Note... regardless of what your driver's ed teacher is telling you... if there is only one lane in each direction, you may NOT overtake (pass by leaving your lane and travelling in the lane that travels in the opposite direction) in an intersection.  That is against the highway traffic act.  It is extremely dangerous.

Answer 2

unless there are two lanes you pass from left.

you only cross the road unless the lines are dashed on your sides or on both sides. never double yellow lines.

Answer 3

Subdivision 1. Turning at intersection. The driver of a vehicle intending to turn at an

intersection shall do so as follows:

(a) Both the approach for a right turn and a right turn shall be made as close as practicable to

the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway.

(b) Approach for a left turn on other than one-way roadways shall be made in that portion of

the right half of the roadway nearest the centerline thereof, and after entering the intersection

the left turn shall be made so as to leave the intersection to the right of the centerline of the

roadway being entered. Whenever practicable the left turn shall be made in that portion of the

intersection to the left of the center of the intersection.

(c) Approach for a left turn from a two-way roadway into a one-way roadway shall be made

in that portion of the right half of the roadway nearest the centerline thereof and by passing to the

right of such centerline where it enters the intersection.

(d) A left turn from a one-way roadway into a two-way roadway shall be made from the

left hand lane and by passing to the right of the centerline of the roadway being entered upon

leaving the intersection.

(e) Where both streets or roadways are one way, both the approach for a left turn and a left

turn shall be made as close as practicable to the left-hand curb or edge of the roadway.

(f) Local authorities in their respective jurisdictions may cause markers, buttons, or signs to

be placed within or adjacent to intersections and thereby require and direct that a different course

from that specified in this section be traveled by vehicles turning at an intersection, and when

markers, buttons, or signs are so placed no driver of a vehicle shall turn a vehicle at an intersection

other than as directed and required by such markers, buttons, or signs.

(g) Whenever it is necessary for the driver of a motor vehicle to cross a bicycle lane adjacent

to the driver's lane of travel to make a turn, the driver shall drive the motor vehicle into the bicycle

lane prior to making the turn, and shall make the turn, yielding the right-of-way to any vehicles

approaching so close thereto as to constitute an immediate hazard.
