 "firstOffenseIidNote": "Under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 60-6,197.03(1), a first DUI conviction carries a 6-month license revocation and the revocation order 'shall require' the person to apply for an ignition interlock permit under § 60-6,211.05 and to have an interlock installed on any vehicle operated during the revocation period (60-day revocation with an interlock permit if the court orders probation or suspends sentence). A first offense with a BAC of 0.15 or more carries a 1-year revocation with the same interlock-permit requirement (§ 60-6,197.03(2)). Administratively, the DMV's ALR page states a driver may waive the ALR hearing and apply for an Ignition Interlock Permit for the 180-day first-offense ALR period.",
 "sr22Note": "SR-22. The DMV's Court Ordered Revocations page requires proof of financial responsibility to remain on file for three years from the date of eligibility for reinstatement, 'normally provided in the form of a SR-22 Certificate of Insurance,' submitted for each vehicle registered in the driver's name. The Ignition Interlock Permit page states this applies if the court revoked driving privileges and the driver has vehicles registered in their name only. The DMV's Administrative License Revocation (ALR) reinstatement list does not include an SR-22 filing.",
