Wright, J.,
concurring in the result.
I concur in the result. Neb. Rev. Stat. § 44-6408(1) (Reissue 2004) makes reference to “any motor vehicle principally garaged in this state.” As the majority has stated, the term “principally garaged” is not difficult to define, but it makes the application of § 44-6408 difficult.
*882The requirement for underinsured motor vehicle coverage should be based upon where the vehicle is principally operated rather than where it is principally garaged, because it is the operation of the vehicle that creates the need for underinsured motor vehicle coverage.
