Nebraska Truck Speed Limit

No split in Nebraska. Trucks run the posted limit like cars, and 75 on the interstate is as high as it goes anywhere in the state (Neb. Rev. Stat. 60-6,186). Douglas County interstate mileage, I-180 in Lancaster County and I-129 in Dakota County are 65. Off the interstate you get 70 on freeways, expressways and super-twos and 65 on the rest of the state highway system, and those are the numbers to read.
