Frequently Asked Questions About SR-22 Insurance in San Francisco County
An SR-22 is a California Proof of Insurance certificate, not an insurance policy. However, the certificate must be attached to a policy for high risk drivers. An SR-22 is filed with the State of California Department of Motor Vehicles to certify that the owner of the policy carries the required minimum of liability insurance, demonstrating financial responsibility and fulfilling his court ordered requirements.
Basically, a certificate can be required if you have been convicted of driving without insurance or a license, driving on a suspended or revoked license or reckless driving. However, probably the most common reason SR-22 insurance is required is for drivers convicted of a DUI. If you have been convicted of a DUI and your license has been suspended, you may qualify for a restricted license, but you will first need to purchase an insurance policy with an SR-22.
To get your restricted license, you have to take your probation order and proof of your certificate to a San Francisco County DMV office. Note that you will also need to show proof of your certificate if your license was revoked or suspended and you are getting it reinstated. If you need insurance so you can get your restricted license, call a Breathe Easy Insurance Solutions agent at 833-786-0237 to purchase your policy and get the ball rolling. When you obtain coverage from Breathe Easy Insurance Solutions, we file your SR-22 electronically so you can get back on the road and back to your life.
Unfortunately, no. If you need California SR-22 insurance, you must obtain a high-risk driver policy from a state-approved agency. Breathe Easy Insurance Solutions is approved by the State of California to issue SR-22 certifications for drivers convicted of a DUI and other moving violations. Ask a Breathe Easy Insurance Solutions agent to walk you through the process of purchasing your qualifying policy and filing your certificate with the state.
Insurance policy minimums are $15,000 for bodily injury for one individual, $30,000 for two or more people and $5,000 for property damage. These minimums are expressed as 15/30/5.
Once filed, the SR-22 must remain active for a minimum of 36 months, though the court may require you to maintain it for longer. If you default on your premium payments, your certificate is revoked and your insurance company must immediately notify the state. Once your SR-22 is revoked, your license is immediately suspended. Therefore, it is very important to keep your premiums paid and up to date so it is never revoked.
