Are there any limits on how long my license can be suspended for a DWI conviction?

Yes, there are limits on how long your license can be suspended for a DWI conviction in the state of Nebraska. The suspension period depends on the circumstances of your offense and any prior convictions. For first-time offenders, the license suspension period is 30 days for a conviction of driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 or higher. If your BAC was 0.15 or higher, the suspension will last 90 days. If you were charged with refusing to take a blood alcohol test, the suspension will be 90 days. If you were convicted of DUI with a minor passenger in the vehicle, the suspension will be 18 months. If you are a repeat offender, the suspension period may be longer. For a second offense, the suspension will be a minimum of 90 days. The minimum suspension for a third offense is 1 year, and the minimum for a fourth offense is 2 years. In addition to the license suspension, you may have to fulfill court-imposed requirements before your license is reinstated, such as completing a court-approved DWI education program. If your license is suspended due to a DUI conviction, most insurance companies will require you to obtain an SR-22 form before granting coverage.
