Nebraska Supreme Court upholds speeding fine law
The Nebraska Supreme Court, in a 9-2 ruling, upheld the constitutionality of a controversial speed limit law. The law gives Interstate speeders a break with no court costs or license points for going zero to 10 mph over the limit, while allowing penalties to vary by offense. The decision rejects a challenge arguing a double standard would encourage unsafe driving and notes the legislature may tailor penalties to the seriousness of the offense.
