Minnesota HF3774 mandates bicycles to stop for yellow traffic lights at intersections.

Minnesota HF3774 amends state transportation law to require bicycle operators to stop for yellow traffic lights at intersections. This new rule applies when a steady yellow light is shown, mandating cyclists to halt before entering the intersection or the nearest crosswalk. The bill clarifies that this requirement does not affect existing right-of-way rules and is not applicable when traffic is controlled by a peace officer or an authorized person. This change becomes effective the day after the bill's final enactment.
