Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need insurance if my license is suspended?

Most states require you to maintain continuous insurance or file an SR-22 even during suspension, especially for DUI or lapse-related suspensions. Letting coverage lapse restarts your SR-22 filing period and can extend your suspension.

What is an SR-22 and how long do I need it?

An SR-22 is a certificate your insurer files with the state proving you carry minimum liability coverage. Most states require it for 3 years after a DUI, reckless driving conviction, or at-fault uninsured accident.

What happens if I let my SR-22 lapse?

Your insurer notifies the state within 24 hours of cancellation. Your license is re-suspended immediately and your SR-22 filing period restarts from zero in most states.
