In Nebraska, when is it illegal to drive?

Driving with a revoked or suspended license is illegal in Nebraska, as it implies that the individual has already lost their driving privileges due to a specific reason, such as repeated traffic violations, serious offenses, or failure to comply with court orders. When a person's license is revoked or suspended, they are not legally permitted to operate a vehicle. This law is essential for maintaining road safety and ensuring that only qualified individuals are allowed to drive.

In contrast, having a valid learner's permit is a legal requirement for those who are in the process of learning to drive, allowing them to practice under certain conditions. Driving with an expired registration, while not advisable, does not impact the driver’s license status directly but instead pertains to vehicle registration compliance. Lastly, driving under the influence of alcohol, although unsafe and heavily penalized, is categorized differently and pertains to impairing factors rather than invalidating the ability to hold a license itself.
