Top tips for renting a car in Nebraska

  • Planning a business or leisure trip to Nebraska? With major metro areas like Lincoln and Omaha, along with great attractions like the Nebraska State Capital, the Strategic Air and Space Museum, and the Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium, car rental in Nebraska gives you the liberty to discover the Cornhusker State at your own pace and convenience. In Nebraska, all drivers and front-seat passengers are required to wear seatbelts while the car is in drive. Additionally, children under six years old must be fastened in appropriate child safety seats. This is state law, meaning you can be pulled over and ticketed if you violate it.
  • Motorists are required to give way to pedestrians at crosswalks. Another law to be mindful of is that funeral processions are classified as emergency vehicles, so motorists are required to yield to them at all times. It is illegal to leave your pets or children in a car unattended in Nebraska. It is also illegal to make calls or send or read text messages while driving in Nebraska. In rainy weather conditions, headlights are required whenever you’re using your windshield wipers. Drivers in Nebraska are required to maintain at least a three-second gap between themselves and the car ahead. This gap should increase if weather and traffic conditions are difficult, or if you’re hauling a trailer.
  • Agriculture is an important part of the economy in Nebraska. If you plan on driving to the countryside during the farming season, be sure to look out for farm equipment and vehicles operating on public roads. Specifically, look out for Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) signs when you’re driving in rural parts of the state. Whether you are on a Nebraska rural road or a major highway, farm equipment will usually overlap two lanes, so be cautious, especially when you’re passing them.
  • Nebraska often has white winters. So, when you rent a car, keep in mind that winter months can have heavy snow conditions. If you’re not used to driving in snowy conditions, it’s important that you exercise the utmost caution, go slow, and always ensure that there’s adequate space between you and the car in front of you. Most importantly, always make sure that the car you’re about to rent has snow tires.
  • Book your rental car in Nebraska at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Standard rental cars in Nebraska are around 45% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in Nebraska

  • Should I rent a car in Nebraska?

    Whether you are traveling to Nebraska for work or leisure, a rental car will help you move around and accomplish your mission at your own pace. Check off every item on your to-do list at will rather than spending money on rideshares or deciding which train or bus connections to make.

  • What is driving like in Nebraska?

    Nebraska is a fairly large American state, about 450 miles east to west and 250 miles north to south. The eastern side of the state is known for crop production, while the north has more ranching. The eastern part of the state is where the greatest concentration of cities and population is located (including Omaha). As you drive west, towns become farther apart. Driving in the state, especially in the rural parts, requires extra caution because you will sometimes encounter agricultural vehicles using the roads. It is not unusual to run into livestock crossing the road as well. Always look out for road signs when you’re driving in Nebraska.

Most car rental companies also impose an additional fee on renters under the age of twenty five. Find out your preferred car-rental company’s policy on fees for young drivers.
