DUI SR22 Insurance
Reader’s Question:
I was recently caught driving under the influence. Now the authorities say I should get a SR-22 or else I won’t be able to drive on the road again. Why is that so?

DUI SR22 insurance is demanded from those who were caught for driving under the influence of alcohol. SR22 may also be requested from those who are frequent traffic violators. SR22 actually is more of a certification from your insurance company and issued to state authorities. This is to testify that you have a policy coverage with your insurance company and thus you are covered from any damage or accident you may get with the next time you are on the road.
DUI SR22 insurance is given only to high risk drivers, so expect that you will be dealing with high premiums from your insurer from now on. You have to pay your premiums on time, or your insurance company can cancel your DUI SR22 insurance for good. This means you cannot go around driving even if you have a driver’s license since your SR22 insurance had just been cancelled.
Remember that you have to carry your SR22 insurance every time you drive, or else you will be facing more troubles on the road.
