What is SR-22 insurance?

An SR-22 document simply indicates that you meet your state‘s car insurance coverage requirement for driving during a required time frame.

If you're convicted of a traffic offense like a DUI or not having auto insurance, your state may ask for proof that you're insured. However, you don't have time to wait around; you must get where you're headed. We can issue your SR-22 form immediately and let the state know you're insured—without any fees.

Who needs an SR-22?

Some states require insurance companies to provide SR-22s for certain types of risky driver behavior. These include having been convicted of DUI, reckless driving, speeding, or failing to yield at a stop sign.

• DUI/DWI

• If you drive with a suspended or revoked drivers' licence, you could be arrested.

• Cause an accident while driving without car insuarance.

• If you're charged repeatedly for traffic offenses, including several serious ones, then you may be eligible for an expungement.

You must meet this criterion if a judge or the DMV decides you need to obtain an SR-22 certificate. You’ll be notified either in person at your hearing or by mail.
