Answer:
Nebraska does not have a specific law regarding overtaking bicycles. However, the general overtaking law (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 60-6,133) states that when a driver is passing another vehicle in the same direction, they must first signal their intention. The driver should then pass to the left of the other vehicle at a safe distance and must not return to the right side of the roadway until they are safely clear of the vehicle being overtaken.
