DUI / DWI

cycling under influence (CUI)

Some states have laws against riding a bicycle on a street or highway while under the influence of drugs or alcohol (cycling under the influence, or CUI). Other states apply traditional DUI/DWI laws to cycling while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. And some states don't have a specific CUI law, and don't apply traditional DUI/DWI laws to riding a non-motorized vehicle, such as a bicycle.

In Nebraska, the laws that apply to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI) do not explicitly include bicycles. Nebraska's DUI laws pertain to 'motor vehicles,' which does not encompass bicycles as they are not motorized. Therefore, Nebraska does not have a specific cycling under the influence (CUI) law, and traditional DUI/DWI laws do not apply to riding a non-motorized vehicle such as a bicycle. However, cyclists may still be subject to other laws and local ordinances that address public intoxication or reckless behavior. It is important for cyclists to be aware of and comply with all applicable traffic laws and to ride responsibly.
