Requirements for Collecting Personal Information in Nebraska

The request must contain a signed statement of the requestor whereby the requestor certifies that the information contained on the motor vehicle record(s) received will only be used as authorized by the Uniform Motor Vehicle Records Disclosure Act and acknowledges that the request is made with the understanding that any person making such a request who misrepresents either their identity or the purpose for which the information is requested shall be guilty of a Class IV felony [2.1].
Any person requesting the disclosure of personal information contained in a motor vehicle record must furnish proof of identity as provided in section 004.03A2 of these rules and regulations [2.1].
