There are more than 2.1 million automobiles registered in Nebraska, but a 2006 study estimates that as many as 6% of drivers on Nebraska roads lack auto insurance. If you're driving in Nebraska, it's a good idea to carry Uninsured Motorist (UM) coverage. UM coverage protects you in the event that you're in an accident with one of these uninsured drivers. Major insurance carriers have offices in Omaha, Lincoln, and Bellevue. For more information on Nebraska insurance requirements, contact the Nebraska Department of Insurance (http://www.doi.ne.gov/).
