About these questions

We wrote these practice questions from the facts in the Nebraska Driver's Manual (Nebraska Driver's Manual (Class O), dated January 2025 on the back cover (PDF p. 88); file 'Class O Drivers Manual-English 1-2025.pdf' on dmv.nebraska.gov, 92 PDF pages, PDF metadata created 2025-05-01 and modified 2025-06-04, server last-modified 2026-07-08; it is the car manual linked from the DMV Manuals page (dmv.nebraska.gov/dl/manuals), read 2026-11-10. Citations use PDF page numbers; the printed page number is the PDF page minus 8 (PDF p. 9 is printed p. 1). PDF pages 1-2, 4, 86-87 and 89-92 are covers, ads or images without usable text and were not used; the AAA sample test on PDF pp. 84-85 was not used as a source. The extracted text renders the 'fi' ligature as '4' (e.g. '4ne' for 'fine'). Because the manual predates several law changes, every legal rule used in questions was checked against the Nebraska Revised Statutes on nebraskalegislature.gov (Chapter 60 and others, read 2026-11-10; the site already includes the 2025 and 2026 session laws, and each section's source note was checked for 2023-2026 amendments). Questions follow the statute. Out-of-date or inexact manual statements and how they were handled: (1) crash reports (PDF p. 81): the manual's $1,500 property-damage threshold was raised to $2,000 by Laws 2026, LB1126, effective July 18, 2026 (Neb. Rev. Stat. 60-699(1)); questions use $2,000; the manual's 'Class II or III misdemeanor' for failing to report differs from 60-699(5) (Class V misdemeanor), so questions only say it is a misdemeanor; (2) move-over law (PDF pp. 59, 92): the manual covers only stopped emergency, road assistance, utility, highway maintenance and solid waste vehicles with flashing lights, with fines of up to $100 and up to $500 or 7 days; since Laws 2025, LB530, 60-6,378 covers any stopped vehicle on the same side of a controlled-access highway unless it is unoccupied with no one near, a first violation is a traffic infraction and a second within five years a Class IIIA misdemeanor; questions use the statute and no fine amounts are tested; (3) the minimum speed (PDF p. 68) is given for the 'interstate'; 60-6,193(2) sets 40 mph on freeways; questions say freeway; 60-6,193(6) (Laws 2026, LB977, effective July 18, 2026) adds a ban on blocking traffic by driving side by side, which the manual does not mention; questions use the statute; (4) the 75 mph interstate limit (PDF p. 60) omits the 65 mph statutory limit in Douglas County and on I-180 and I-129 (60-6,186(1)(i)); the fact and explanation note it; (5) the School Permit 50-hour form (PDF p. 11) is said to need 10 night hours, but 60-4,124(1) does not require night hours for the SCP (it does for the POP, 60-4,120.01(2)(b)); only the POP night-hour rule is tested; (6) the manual (PDF p. 9) gives a $200 fine for a teen permit holder's wireless device violation; 60-4,120.01, 60-4,123 and 60-4,124 state the ban and secondary enforcement but no fine, so only the ban and the one-point assessment (PDF p. 27) are tested; (7) speeding points (PDF p. 27): the manual's table (0 points for 1-5 mph over after 11/14/20) does not match the wording of 60-4,182(10), so speeding point values are not tested; (8) the autocycle supervision rule differs between the manual (permit holder beside or in front of the supervisor) and 60-4,124 for the School Permit and LPE (supervisor beside or behind); not tested; (9) fines doubled in school zones (PDF p. 61) and the speeding fine schedule were not found in the statutes read (60-6,188(4) covers doubled fines in maintenance, repair and construction zones only), so only the work-zone doubling is tested; (10) the 35 mph rural and 25 mph urban construction-zone limits of 60-6,188 are not in the manual; questions use the statute. The texting law (60-6,179.01, secondary enforcement, $200/$300/$500 and 3 points) is unchanged: LB594 of 2025-2026, which would have made it a primary hands-free law, was indefinitely postponed on April 17, 2026 (Legislature bill page, read 2026-11-10). The manual's BAC limits, implied consent, ALR periods, insurance minimums, parking distances, railroad stop distance, school bus rule, fire-apparatus distance, three-foot bicycle and pedestrian clearance, child restraint and seat belt rules and the 12-point revocation match the statutes. edition) and from official sources on road signs. Every answer links to its source, so you can check it and read more.
