Minimum Coverage Requirements in Nebraska

Drivers convicted of DUI, driving without insurance, or accumulating 12 or more points in a 24-month period typically face SR-22 filing requirements. SR-22 is not a separate insurance policy but a certificate filed by your insurer with the Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles proving you carry continuous coverage. Most drivers must maintain SR-22 for 3 years, and any lapse triggers license suspension and restarts the clock.

Liability Insurance

High-risk drivers with SR-22 requirements should consider 50/100/50 or higher to protect assets and avoid out-of-pocket exposure. Carriers writing SR-22 policies in Nebraska include non-standard insurers that specialize in high-risk placements, and they will verify your coverage directly with the DMV.

SR-22 Insurance

SR-22 is a certificate of financial responsibility filed by your insurer with the Nebraska DMV, not a separate insurance product. It's typically required for 3 years following a DUI, uninsured accident, or license suspension for points or violations. If your policy lapses or is cancelled during the SR-22 period, your insurer notifies the DMV within 10 days and your license is immediately suspended — reinstatement requires paying fees, obtaining new coverage, and refiling SR-22, which restarts the 3-year clock.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage

Nebraska does not mandate uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, but insurers must offer it and you must reject it in writing.

Full Coverage

Full coverage combines liability with comprehensive and collision, protecting both your legal exposure and your vehicle's value. If you have a car loan or lease, your lender will require full coverage regardless of your driving record.

Non-Standard Auto Insurance

Non-standard carriers specialize in insuring drivers with DUIs, suspensions, lapses, or multiple violations who cannot qualify for standard market rates.
