- B 16, and only after finishing a driver safety course
- C 15, with applications accepted 60 days early
- D 15 and six months, after passing a drive test
Show answer
C. 15, with applications accepted 60 days early
The LPD can be issued on or after your 15th birthday, and you may apply up to 60 days early so it is ready on time. It is the permit most teens use to practise for a Provisional Operator's Permit.
You hold a Nebraska Learner's Permit (LPD) and want to practise driving a car. Who must be with you?
- A Any licensed driver at least 18 years old, seated anywhere
- B A parent or guardian only, regardless of the parent's license
- C A licensed driver at least 21 who may ride in the back seat
- D A licensed driver at least 21 in the seat beside you
Show answer
D. A licensed driver at least 21 in the seat beside you
An LPD holder may drive only with a licensed driver who is at least 21 sitting in the seat beside them. Sitting beside you lets the supervisor see what you see and help right away.
What is the earliest age at which you can get a Nebraska School Learner's Permit (LPE)?
- A 13, if you live on a farm
- B 15, and you may apply up to 60 days early
- C 14 years and two months
- D 14, and not before your 14th birthday
Show answer
D. 14, and not before your 14th birthday
The LPE lets a 14-year-old practise driving for a School Permit, and you cannot apply before your 14th birthday. You must also meet all the School Permit criteria to get one.
How long is a Nebraska School Learner's Permit (LPE) valid after it is issued?
- A One year
- B Until your 16th birthday
- C Until age 16 years and three months
- D Six months
Show answer
D. Six months
An LPE expires six months after it is issued, which is enough time to practise and move up to a School Permit. Each Nebraska permit has its own expiration, so keep track of which one you hold.
