Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need insurance while my license is suspended?

You don't need insurance to keep a suspended license valid, but most states require proof of continuous insurance to reinstate it. If you let coverage lapse during suspension, your reinstatement timeline often resets. Non-owner policies satisfy this requirement without needing a registered vehicle.

What is an SR-22 and who needs one?

An SR-22 is a certificate your insurer files with the state DMV proving you carry minimum liability coverage. Required after DUI, reckless driving, multiple at-fault accidents, or driving without insurance. Filing periods range from 1 to 5 years depending on violation and state.

Can I get a hardship license while suspended?

Most states allow restricted or hardship licenses for limited driving to work, school, or medical appointments during suspension. You must maintain SR-22 insurance and meet state-specific eligibility criteria. Eligibility typically requires serving a portion of your suspension first.

What happens if I miss an SR-22 insurance payment?

Your insurer notifies the DMV within 24 hours of a lapse, triggering immediate license re-suspension in most states. You must file a new SR-22, pay reinstatement fees again, and restart your filing period. A single lapse can add 6–12 months to your total timeline.
