NEBRASKA DMV LAUNCHES NEW LICENSE PLATE, OFFERS 52 SPECIALTY PLATES FOR 2023

LINCOLN- The new year will be accompanied by not only a new Nebraska license plate but 52 additional specialty options. State Department of Motor Vehicles Director Rhonda Lahm said the plates are now available, but will most likely be distributed in January.

Under state law, Nebraska must update its license plate design every six years. The last plate launched in 2017, so 2023 marks the beginning of a new issuance cycle. The plate features a backdrop of an original mosaic displayed on the floor near the Capitol rotunda named β€œThe Genius of Creative Energy,” which depicts a man riding atop the clouds behind lightning and clouds. 

The license plate was chosen by Governor Ricketts. The design had a lot of feedback, both good and bad. Rhonda Lahm said that criticism has been worst in the past with previous license plate reveals. She mentioned that new plates normally take some time to get used to, so don't criticize them just yet.
