How Much is SR22 Insurance
There are a number of reasons why a person may have to get an SR22 insurance policy including too many speeding tickets, driving without insurance, excessive accumulation of points on one’s driver’s license, driving under the influence, and various other reasons.
Sooner or later the people that are required to have an SR22 filing with their local DMV before their license will be reinstated start hearing from friends, family, and doing some research on their own that SR22 insurance is going to be a lot more expensive than their insurance policy was before. The question is how much more expensive?
The average cost of an SR22 insurance policy is going to depend on the reason why your license was suspended or revoke for in the first place. If you are a DUI offender who has to get an SR22 to get your license back, the cost is going to depend on a number of factors including:
Was this a first, second, third, or more offense?
Was there an accident?
Did the accident result in injuries to any other person?
These are just a couple of examples of the items your insurance company is going to look at when quoting you a price on your SR22 insurance for a DUI offense. A standard first offense DUI offender should expect to pay between 3 and 5 times as much per month for their SR22 insurance as they were paying on their regular auto insurance rates. So if you were paying a month for your car insurance before the DUI offense, you should expect to pay between 0 and 0 a month for the next 3-years following the reinstatement of your license following your suspension or revocation period.
If the DMV is requiring you to file an SR22 with them for something like too many speeding tickets. Even though your offense of too many speeding tickets is not as severe as someone who has to file an SR22 because of a DUI offense, the required filing period is still going to be 3-years. So your relationship with your SR22 insurance is going to be for an extend period of time. Your SR22 insurance rates for something like too many speeding tickets will be lower than the rates for a DUI offense, but they will be at least 1 to 2 times or more than you are currently paying for your car insurance.
There are steps you can take to be sure that you are paying the least amount possible per month for your SR22 insurance. The first thing you need to do is to not assume that your current insurance provider is going to have the lowest rates possible for your SR22. Just because you may have been with this insurance company for years and they have always treated you fairly does not mean that will be the case when it comes to quoting you on an SR22 insurance policy, if they even offer SR22 insurance filings because not every insurance company does.
What you need to do is spend a little time researching your state DMV SR22 insurance filing requirements. Then get at least 3 to 5 quotes from the various insurance providers in your area that offer SR22 insurance filings then all you have to do is choose the policy with the lowest price, it’s that simple.
Each state has its own laws regarding SR22 insurance filing requirements, so it’s critical that you learn what must be done to file an SR22 in your state. For example, someone who is required to file SR22 insurance in Florida will have to follow a different set of rules then someone who is filing in Virginia.
