An SR-22 is not a type of insurance — it's a certificate your insurance carrier files with your state to prove you carry at least the minimum required liability coverage. Drivers who need an SR-22 have typically had a DUI, reckless driving conviction, license suspension, or multiple serious violations.
If your state requires an SR-22, getting filed promptly is essential to reinstating your driving privileges. Comparing carriers who specialize in high-risk policies is the fastest path to affordable coverage and reinstatement.
| Triggering Event | SR-22 Required? | Filing Period | Avg. Monthly Premium |
|---|---|---|---|
| DUI / DWI | Yes | 3 years (most states) | $120 – $250 |
| Reckless Driving | Yes | 1–3 years | $100 – $200 |
| License Suspension | Yes | Until reinstatement | $90 – $180 |
| Uninsured Accident | Yes | 1–3 years | $85 – $160 |
| Excessive Violations | Sometimes | 1–3 years | $80 – $150 |
