An SR-22 is a document filed with your local DMV stating that you have enough insurance to cover any damages caused by accidents involving your vehicle. It doesn't actually serve as a type of insurance; instead, it shows that you meet certain requirements set forth by your jurisdiction.

What is an FR-44?

An FR-44 provides proof that a driver has active insurance that covers at least the minimum required by law. It usually includes higher amounts of protection than the minimum required by law or SR-22 minimum limits.

Do I need an insurance policy?

Not every driver requires an SR-22/ FR-44. Some states require them for specific traffic offenses. For example, California requires drivers who have had multiple convictions for DUI or reckless evasion to get one.

• DUI convictions

• Reckless driving

• Uninsured drivers cause accidents

To get an SR-22/ FR-44, contact either the courts or your state motor vehicle department.
