The reason for requiring a driver to carry an SR22 may differ among states, however age is not one component that commonly has anything related to the requirement for this certificate of financial responsibility.
An SR-22 is usually needed when insurance policies are supplied to a person that was in an accident or was found guilty of a traffic violation and was not able to provide proof of financial responsibility. Every state has different versions of this form and the related insurance specifications.
Here are some of the reason why a driver may be required to carry an SR22 insurance:
1. DUI or DWI or any major moving violation
2. operating a vehicle without liability insurance and caused an accident where you were found at fault
3. Repeat traffic violations or getting too many points in your driving record in a short time period
4. License suspension or revoked license – the SR22 is needed as part of the reinstatement process
5. Driving without the liability insurance (often known as SR-22a, SR-22s, SR-26, or other versions by state)
To have your license restored, you will need to carry an SR22 as part of your reinstatement process. It all depends on the laws of the state where you reside.
